Created for use at the point of care, Atlas of Cardiovascular Emergencies is enhanced by more than 400 images, many in full color. Atlas of Cardiovascular Emergencies is logically divided into nine chapters: Anatomy Electrocardiography: Normal Heart, Ischemic and Chronic Vascular Disease Principles of Cardiovascular Imaging Devices Arrhythmias Vascular Disease Cardiomyopathies Pediatric Cardiology Procedures

Emergency medicine textbook on identifying and treating cardiac emergencies, includes interpretation of ECGs, use of ultrasound in diagnosis, identification of arrhythmias, shock, syncope, post-arrest syndrome and much more.

Drs. Tewelde and Reynolds have put together an excellent issue on Cardiovascuar Emergencies. Articles include:Pregnancy Related Coronary Artery Disease, Decompensated Cyanotic Heart Disease, Blunt Cardiac Injury, Blunt Cardiac Injury, STEMI Chameleons, Hypertensive Emergency, Troubleshooting the Pacer/ICD, Cardiogenic Shock, Cardiac Arrest, and more!

This atlas is a comprehensive visual reference for the use of cardiovascular computed tomography (CT) containing photomicrographs, anatomic illustrations, tables, and charts paired with extensive legends and explanations that are supplemented by extensive research, peer-reviewed articles, and textbooks. In addition to providing historical perspective and current direction for CT, this new edition of ​Atlas of Cardiovascular Computed Tomography 2e focuses on research involving coronary artery diseases and anomalies, congestive heart failure, atherosclerotic plaques and asymptomatic disease, as well as imaging techniques, including preparation, acquisition, and processing, involving the great vessels and carotids, the peripheral vasculature, and coronary and pulmonary veins. The increasing role of CT in the emergency room and in private cardiology practice is also reviewed thoroughly, making this an essential read for all involved in cardiac imaging, cardiology and emergency medicine.​

Beginning with a brief overview of history taking, physical examination, and investigative techniques, this book also includes investigations and pharmacological and catheter-based technologies and their respective management. A brief description of infections leading to varying cardiac complications such as myocarditis, endocarditis, pericarditis, cardiac tamponade, and additionaly DCM, valvular and vascular emergencies, hypothermia, and cardiogenic shock have been included. Also provided is the description of invasive procedures and noninvasive cardiovascular imaging techniques which are essential in any emergency department. Cardiac resuscitation is the most essential part of management of cardiac emergencies, both on roadside and inside the ICU, hence the book describes in detail the techniques of cardiopulmonary resuscitation, non-invasive ventilation, and therapy in acute cardiopulmonary failure. It also includes a brief account of the side effects and their respective management.
