Description:
In recent years, the field of pediatric cardiology has undergone rapid change, resulting in earlier diagnoses and improved long-term outcomes for many patients. Nadas' Pediatric Cardiology, 3rd Edition, offers an easy-to-understand, practical, and team-based approach to this complex field, addressing the current needs of pediatric cardiologists, surgeons, fellows, and other members of the pediatric cardiology team. It thoroughly covers all diagnostic and management aspects of both acquired and congenital heart disease, providing a strong foundation and an actionable approach to care of the pediatric cardiology patient and family.
Key Features:
- Comprehensive Coverage: Provides comprehensive coverage of the foundational and practical aspects of care for complex heart problems in children, covering both therapy and surgery from basic information through complex, team-based clinical applications.
- New Chapters: Includes new chapters on cardiomyopathies, structural heart disease, interventional procedures, genetics, electrophysiology, and imaging.
- Up-to-Date Information: Discusses the latest information on diagnosis and treatment of congenital heart disease, including in the fetus and young adult.
- Current Drugs and Surgical Therapy: Covers current drugs used in pediatric heart conditions and surgical therapy.
- Expertise and Team-Based Approach: Shares the knowledge and expertise of editors and authors at Boston Children’s Hospital, one of the world’s largest and most highly rated pediatric cardiology and congenital heart surgery institutions, using a team-based approach.
- Full Spectrum of Care: Covers the full spectrum of care, including anesthesia, the ICU, and nursing considerations.
- Enhanced eBook: An eBook version is included with purchase. The eBook allows you to access all of the text, figures and references, with the ability to search, customize your content, make notes and highlights, and have content read aloud.
