Book Description
Hemodynamic Rounds, Third Edition is intended to help cardiologists and other members ofthe medical community enhance their understanding of cardiac physiology and its associatedhemodynamic presentations in health and disease, including the basic principles of flow andpressure measurements; systemic as well as coronary hemodynamics in normal and diseased states; and changes in hemodynamics following interventional procedures ranging from valvuloplasty to stent placement.
Like its popular predecessors, this new edition draws on case studies to illustrate characteristiccardiac hemodynamic findings and discuss the essential methods used in interpreting pressure waveforms as a diagnostic and monitoring tool.
