    Pacemakers and Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillators: An Expert’s Manual 1st Edition

    by Amin Al-Ahmad
    In the rapidly evolving field of treating cardiac arrhythmias, the importance of direct management of patients with implantable cardiac devices is growing. The devices have become increasingly complex, and understanding their algorithms and growing programming options is essential for physicians who implant and manage them. Written by experts and world authorities in the field, Pacemakers and Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillators: An Expert’s Manual provides electrophysiologists, fellows in training, nurses, and cardiovascular technicians involved in day-to-day management of device patients with detailed information about the many device algorithms and interactions.

     

    • Heavily illustrated with over 300 figures and tables.
    • Uniquely meets the day-to-day needs of all direct management professionals.
    • Focuses in detail on algorithms
    • Describes device interactions, addressing every major manufacturer.
    • Provides in-depth insight into pacing, including biventricular pacing.
    • Discusses arrhythmia detection and device classification, testing, and therapy.
