1. Calcium-Antagonismus (Paperback)

Wir prtiften die Wirkung von Verapamil (V) auf die Reizleitungszeit innerhalb des akut ischamischen Myokards bei 10 Hunden (5 Kontrollgruppe, 5 behandelt mit V) nach Unterbindung des RIVA. Verapamil wurde in einer Dosis von 0,15 mg/kg in travenos als Bolus, unmittelbar nach KoronarverschluB bei 5 Hunden verabreicht; anschlieBend wurde eine Dosis von 7,5 J. 1g/kg/Min infundiert. Die Unterbindung des RIV A erfolgte in zwei Stufen: in einer ersten Phase distal vom 2. R. diagonalis und in einer zweiten Stufe 30 Min spater distal vom 1. R. diagonalis. Endokardiale bipolare Elektrokardiogramme wurden mittels mehrerer Nadelelektroden vor sowie 5, 15 und 30 Min nach jeder Unterbindung aufgezeichnet. Die Untersuchung wurde bei konstanter Vorhofstimulation (200/Min) und vorzeitigen Stimuli mit einem Kopplungsintervall von 50070 durchgefiihrt. Die Reizleitungszeit (definiert als der Zeitintervall zwischen der vorzeitigen Schrittmacherstimulation und der ersten hochfrequenten Schwingung im endokardialen EKG) wurde im ischamischen sowie normalen Muskelareal beider Untersuchungsgruppen gemessen. Ergebnis: (1) Vor KoronarverschluB war die Reizleitungszeit innerhalb des normalen Myokardiums bei beiden Untersuchungsgruppen gleich. (2) Nach VerschluB des RIVA verzogerte sich die Reizleitungszeit signifikant innerhalb des ischamischen Areals bei der Kon trollgruppe. (3) In der mit Verapamil behandelten Gruppe unterschied sich die Reiz leitungszeit innerhalb des ischamischen Myokards nicht signifikant von Werten vor dem KoronarverschluB. Dies war signifikant unterschiedlich von Werten in der Ver gleichsgruppe. Folgerung: Nach KoronarverschluB verhindert die intravenose Gabe von Verapa mil die Verzogerung der Impulsfortleitung im ischamischen Areal."

4. Cardiac Pacemakers Step-by-Step: An Illustrated Guide, Used [Paperback]

Over the years we have heard many complaints that there is no very simple book on cardiac pacing for real beginners. We have also heard that all the books on cardiac pacing are too complicated and impossible to understand by beginners. Many have voiced the hope that one day someone would write a book in the same style as Dubin's book on basic electrocardiography which is a huge bestseller with well over a million sold in many languages. A 'Dummy' book on cardiac pacing would appeal to nurses, cardiology technicians, medical students and pacemaker companies for training their staff. We started with the assumption that the reader would know the principles of electrocardiography as in Dubin's book but nothing about cardiac pacing. We carefully studied the Dubin book and believe that we have improved his teaching method. The book consists of numbered illustrations each illustrating a concept in the form of a diagram drawn professionally. We have been careful to make the artwork simple for easy comprehension. Each illustration will occupy a page and have several lines of text below it. We have already completed most of these. It is essential that there are all in color, this is a unique selling point. The 3 authors have had vast experience in the field. Dr Barold has published 10 books on cardiac pacing and wrote the section on cardiac pacing in the 4th and 5th Edition of Braunwald's book, Heat Disease." S. Serge Barold, Roland Stroobandt and Alfons Sinnaeve Content: The plates depicting a concept with occupy 1 pages. Each plate consists of a diagram and a short text. All diagrams are in color. In black and white they would lose their teaching value There will be approx 200 plates. There will be approx 100 electrocardiograms. There will be a glossary, appendices and index

Accessories such as CD, codes, toys, may not be included. This full-color handbook features more than 200 waveforms that demonstrate the most important characteristics of all the common arrhythmias. The book explains the fundamentals of anatomy and physiology, rhythm strips, and 12-lead ECGs and covers all the common arrhythmias as well as ECG effects of various disorders. Coverage includes antiarrhythmic drug actions and adverse effects and nonpharmacologic treatments such as radiofrequency ablation, ICDs, and biventricular pacemakers. Key telltale abnormalities are highlighted on each rhythm strip. Icons call attention to dangerous rhythms, differences in similar patterns, and red-flag alerts. Scores of practice strips are also included.

8. Cardiovascular Pathophysiology, Used [Hardcover]

Written by a distinguished group of physicians and scientists, this volume provides a thorough survey of the basic mechanisms of cardiovascular disease. Each chapter begins with a brief overview of normal structure and function, and then offers a clear discussion of pathophysiologic mechanisms, covering both acquired and congenital abnormalities. Physical examination of the cardiovascular system, invasive and noninvasive diagnostic methods, and medical and surgical treatment are discussed in terms of their relation to pathophysiology, so that clinical practice is seen to proceed logically from the nature of the underlying disease process. The book is intended for students of medicine with a background in normal cardiovascular physiology who are ready to learn about important abnormalities of the system. It will enable them to understand appropriate approaches to patients with cardiovascular disease, as well as to comprehend the immense detail available in more comprehensive texts. As a concise account of the anatomic, physiologic, and pathologic basis of clinical cardiology, the book will continue to be valued in later years by those requiring a review of major pathophysiologic mechanisms.
