Management of Heart Failure ; Vol.2 : Surgical

Management of Heart Failure has been conceived as a rapid but comprehensive review for practitioners of all persuasions involved in the management of patients with heart failure. Heart failure is a problem of epidemic proportions in all parts of the world. State of the art treatment may not be accessible to all, but simply creating an awareness of simple methods of diagnosis and treatment would assist in promoting a better global response to this epidemic. This practical volume, written by a panel of world-renown cardiology experts, focuses on the surgical management of heart failure. Surgery for heart failure is an evolving and new area in cardiac surgery with many exciting developments.

Malattia coronarica : Fisiopatologia e diagnostica non invasiva con TC = Coronary heart disease: Pathophysiology and non-invasive diagnostics with CT

The work stems from the desire to provide the cardiologist or non-imaging physician with the basis for understanding technical principles and methods of acquiring and reconstructing images. At the same time, even the radiologist who does not have specific experience in cardiac imaging will be able to acquire basic knowledge of coronary anatomy and pathophysiology.

Brain and Heart Dynamics

Despite the increasing awareness that neural mechanisms are the primary cause of cardiac disease and its progression, therapy continues to focus on end-organ protection and does not approach the neural core of the problem. Growing public health problems such as heart failure are still treated with autonomic drugs that are 30-40 years old and simply act on cardiac receptors. However, it has now been shown that the progression of ischemic heart disease to heart failure is mainly due to abnormal central responses to incipient cardiac disease, with neural activation the primary cause rather than the consequence of cardiac remodeling.
