Josephson's Clinical Cardiac Electrophysiology, 5/ed > Cardiology

Turn to this updated, classic text for a thorough understanding of the mechanisms of cardiac arrhythmias and the therapeutic interventions used to treat them. Josephson’s Clinical Cardiac Electrophysiology, 5th Edition delivers Dr. Mark Josephson’s unparalleled guidance on the electrophysiologic methodology required to define the mechanism and site of origin of arrhythmias – enabling you to choose the safest and most effective therapy for each patient.

Features:

• Get comprehensive coverage of mechanisms, clinical implications, and limitations of current therapeutic interventions, including drugs, and catheter and surgical ablation.
• Gain a better visual understanding thanks to more than 1,100 illustrations (over 100 are new!),  an increased number of 3-D color anatomical mapping images, ECG examples, photographs of equipment, and procedural diagrams.
• Stay up to date with information on new technologies of ablation and pitfalls of interpreting data; innovative new catheters; new drug information; and new tables summarizing SVT and VT criteria.
• Benefit from Dr. Josephson’s decades of experience as “the father of clinical cardiac electrophysiology,” and learn from his proven approaches and methods in this challenging area.
