Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

This valuable reference provides a wide range of practical, clinical information for physicians who care for patients with neurological and cardiac problems. Clinical Neurocardiology 7considers neurological complications arising from cardiac surgery and other cardiac interventions 7describes neurological findings in heart disease patients, including brain embolism, encephalopathies, and the effects of commonly prescribed drugs 7discusses the prognosis, diagnosis, and treatment of cardiac arrest 7details the management of coexistent coronary and cerebrovascular disease 7reviews the effects of various toxic and metabolic disorders causing neurologic symptoms in cardiac disease patients 7analyzes cardiac lesions as well as cardiac and neurological findings in patients with various diseases that effect the nervous system and heart 7and more! With over 1700 references, tables, drawings, photographs, and micrographs, Clinical Neurocardiology benefits cardiologists; neurologists; cardiac, cardiovascular, and vascular surgeons; neurosurgeons; internists; family and primary care physicians; physiologists; neuroscientists; and graduate and medical school students in these disciplines.

Book News Annotation:

Caplan (Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center), and Hurst and Chimowitz (Emory U. School of Medicine) offer a practical, clinical, and relatively concise source of information about pathologies and complications related to the interdependence of the heart and brain, for cardiologists, internists, and neurologists who need knowledge of one another's disciplines. The first three chapters consider neurological findings in heart disease patients. The following two chapters cover neurological complications of cardiac surgery and cardiac procedures, and the last two chapters describe cardiac, cardiovascular, and neurological findings in patients who have coronary artery and cartoid artery disease.
