Key topics covered include the risk stratification of sudden cardiac death; the fast-evolving role of PCI; predictors of outcomes in chronic ischemic heart disease; catheter ablation for atrial fibrillation; and percutaneous treatment of valvular heart disease; and numerous others. Reviews include assessment of emerging data and indications of likely key advances with significant impact on clinical practice in the near future. This volume is a must-have for every cardiologist needing to be fully current on recent advances in ischemic heart disease and arrhythmic disorders.
