Discusses diagnosis and treatment of all abnormalities in cardiac rhythm, following a practical approach. Although comprehensive, the author also focuses upon particular problem areas, aiming to prevent misinterpretation and subsequent mismanagement. The fourth edition, thoroughly updated, incorporates the many developments since the last edition and takes a fresh look at diagnosis and treatment. It tackles the subjects of arrhythmias in myocardial infarction, antiarrhythmic drugs and cardiac pacing, amongst others. The self-test section has also been revised.
"The language of the book is straightforward and written in short sentences, so it is easy to understand ... (An) excellent no-nonsense text which facilitates the development of a working knowledge of the care of patients with arrhythmias."
Philomena Corrigan, British Journal of Cardiac Nursing
"This is an excellent book, which all cardiologists should read or at least hold in their bookcases for reference."
Dr Sarah Clarke, Cardiology News
