Cardiodiabetes refers to heart disease that develops in people who have diabetes. Compared with people who don't have diabetes, people who have diabetes are at higher risk of heart disease, have additional causes of heart disease, may develop heart disease at a younger age, and may have more severe heart disease. With nearly 1000 pages, this manual is a complete guide to the diagnosis and management of cardiodiabetes. Divided into nine sections, each chapter addresses a separate and distinct issue of clinical relevance. The book provides an insight into clinical spectrum, diagnostic methodology, management strategies, nutraceutical and obesity care, arrhythmia management, coronary intervention, cardiac surgery, rehabilitation, and future directions in cardiodiabetes care. Additionally, the text features discussion on strategies to reduce the growing prevalence of diabetes, and the current pathophysiological understanding of cardiovascular comorbidities in patients with diabetes. More than 500 clinical photographs, illustrations, tables and boxes further enhance the comprehensive text. Key points Nearly 1000 pages providing in depth discussion on diagnosis and management of cardiodiabetes Each chapter addresses a separate issue of clinical relevance Includes future directions in cardiodiabetes care Highly illustrated with more than 500 images, tables and boxes

Heart failure is a serious condition caused by the heart failing to pump enough blood around the body at the right pressure. It usually occurs because the heart muscle has become too weak or stiff to work properly, most commonly caused by heart attack, high blood pressure or cardiomyopathy (heart disease). This textbook is a comprehensive guide to the latest advances in the diagnosis and management of heart failure. Comprising nearly 1000 pages, the book features 15 sections, beginning with discussion on clinical issues of heart failure, followed by imaging techniques. Each of the following sections covers a different disorder or disease that subsequently may lead to heart failure. Topics include coronary artery disease, stroke, arrhythmia, hypertension, nutritional aspects, cardio-oncology, and much more. The book concludes with rehabilitation, legal aspects, and future directions. Authored by internationally recognised experts in the field, the text is further enhanced by clinical photographs, diagrams and tables. Key points Comprehensive guide to latest advances in diagnosis and management of heart failure Extensive text comprising nearly 1000 pages covering numerous associated disorders and diseases Internationally recognised editor and author team Highly illustrated with clinical photographs, diagrams and tables

Dr. S. Ramasamy has 20 years of experience in the field of non-invasive cardiology as a researcher, academic speaker, clinical trainer, and treatment provider—this has a tremendous impact on the uniqueness of this book. The book seamlessly provides golden rules for EECP waveform adjustments. Internationally, one of the significant issues in EECP treatment implementation is a definitive lacuna in training cardiologists, general physicians, clinical experts, and nurse practitioners in the clinical application of EECP. This book addresses these issues by being a great training companion and serves as a teaching tool for beginners as well as those who want to advance their knowledge in EECP treatment. It contains beautiful color illustrations and flowcharts to make complex principles easy to understand. The author has given more attention by placing actual waveforms obtained during treatment to reinforce the practical problems encountered during EECP and how to correct it. The case-based approach followed in the book will help the readers to understand as well as learn quickly and effortlessly. Overall, it is a book every practicing physician and EECP provider should have with them as a one-point reference guide.

Cardiac critical care is an emerging technology. The existing literature has bundles of protocols applied in cardiac critical care intensive care unit. However, there is no textbook that exists for students' reference. For undergraduates, postgraduates, and paramedical staff in cardiac critical care medicine, the increased demand and growth in critical care for cardiac patients necessitates further training. Textbook of Cardiac Critical Care, a brand new, practical resource, helps meet that need. The cardiac critical care division worldwide is still in its infancy, but the book has taken up the challenges of developing this evolving specialty with the entire modern infrastructure at its disposal for state-of-the-art delivery of health care to the most critically ill adult and pediatric cardiac patients. Key Highlights: A straightforward approach, abundant detailed images, and latest references provide step-by-step guidance on the principles and effective use of important imaging modality in both diagnosis and assistance with specific procedures. Coverage includes the latest advances in ECMO, ECHO, and cardiac critical care. This must-have resource will help postgraduates in cardiac anaesthesia, surgery, cardiology, medicine, paediatrics, critical care, and ECMO specialists.
