An understanding of the mechanisms of arrhythmias is essential for their successful diagnosis and management. This concise single author text provides clinicians with the basic science that is becoming increasingly relevant to arrhythmia management, in addition to a logical approach to diagnosis and therapy. This clear presentation of the mechanisms - so often lacking in clinical texts - is linked to the clinical management chapters covering all the major arrhythmias. Illustrated with over 100 clinical examples and helpful schematic diagrams, Mechanisms and Management of Cardiac Arrhythmias provides cardiologists and general physicians with practical, relevant, and current information on the diagnosis and treatment of these complex disorders.
