Current Diagnosis and Treatment Cardiology
by
Current Diagnosis & Treatment: Cardiology is a concise discussion of the knowledge needed to diagnose and manage most cardiovascular diseases. It is designed for trainees to review the essentials of specific conditions and to check the suggested literature included in each section. The experienced clinician will find it a source for quick reference. It is an excellent review for Board examinations. Nurses, technicians, and other health care professionals who help manage cardiology patients will find it a valuable resource for all aspects of cardiovascular disease care.
The 37 chapters in Current Diagnosis & Treatment: Cardiology cover the major disease entities and therapeutic challenges in cardiology. Also, there are chapters on major management issues such as pregnancy and heart disease, the use of anticoagulants in heart disease, and the perioperative evaluation of heart disease patients. Each section is written by experts in the particular area, but it has been extensively edited to ensure a consistent approach throughout the book and the kind of readability found in single-author texts. It is organized into six sections: Prevention of Cardiovascular Disease, Ischemic Heart Disease, Arrhythmias, Valvular Disease, Cardiomyopathy & Heart Failure, and Systemic Diseases & the Heart. Since the fifth edition, new content has been added to every chapter. Certain new content themes permeate multiple chapters such as the increased use of cardiac MRI, CT, PET, and radionuclide imaging in valve, myocardial, pericardial, and ischemic heart disease; the increased application of genetic information in cardiomyopathies, adult congenital heart disease, aortic disease, primary pulmonary arterial hypertension, and valvular heart disease: and new biologic drugs for dyslipidemia, recurrent pericarditis, and cardiac disease associated with connective tissue diseases. Also, recent pharmacologic treatment trial results of several agents used to treat the growing problem of heart failure with preserved left ventricular ejection fraction are detailed. In addition, there is new content on COVID-19 myocarditis and new antineoplastic drugs toxic to the heart such as immune checkpoint inhibitors. Finally, the issue of return to play recommendations for athletes who contract COVID-19 is discussed.

Guide for Advanced Nursing Care of the Adult with Congenital Heart Disease
by
The aim of this book is to provide one central resource for nurses within the adult spectrum of life-long congenital heart disease care who are seeking expert guidance for their practice, regardless of clinical setting. Over the past 50 years, advances in surgical techniques and medical therapies have drastically improved the number of congenital heart disease patients surviving into adulthood, with the result being that there are now more adults then children living with congenital heart disease. In the past three decades, recognition of this new cardiology subspecialty has given way to formalized programs, standards of care, and multidisciplinary expertise. Indeed Nursing care of adult patients with congenital heart disease (ACHD) is a relatively new medical subspecialty with limited knowledge and guidance available and also an important component of the multidisciplinary care team. Nursing care of the ACHD encompasses a holistic approach to the physical, psychological, social, and spiritual wellbeing of these unique individuals across their lifespan. Understanding the intricacies for the various heterogeneous defect types, the transition from pediatric to adult care, the unique educational and self-care needs, life-events such as pregnancy/reproduction, advanced heart failure, and end-of-life care helps prepare the nurse caring for the ACHD patient. Nurses as a first point of care for the ACHD patients play a pivotal role in the education and empowerment of the ACHD patient population and provide an invaluable role in the multidisciplinary team and with this guide nurses can feel confident in the quality of the care they provide.

JCM-Advances in Cardiology
by
Cardiology and cardiovascular sciences are two rapidly growing areas in medicine, with heart diseases being the number one cause of death worldwide. The last four decades have witnessed many developments in various cardiological sciences, including coronary artery disease, valve disease, heart failure, congenital heart diseases, and cardiovascular imaging, with a number of newly developed concepts, such as cardio-oncology, cardio-renal diseases, and preventive cardiology. This Special Issue (SI) of the Journal of Clinical Medicine, entitled “JCM-Advances in Cardiology”, focuses on recent advances in the cardiological sciences. It published 8 research articles of significant clinical and scientific value.

Preventative Cardiovascular Nursing
by
This book provides a comprehensive overview of essential concepts and evidence that guide the practice of contemporary preventive cardiovascular nursing. The sections incorporate a lifespan approach to cardiovascular wellness, and provide perspectives on sources of known and emerging cardiovascular risk factors as well as the spectrum of multidimensional factors including biological, behavioral, psychological and sociocultural influences on cardiovascular wellness, risk, and the evolution of cardiovascular conditions. Unique features address: 1) building resilience across the lifespan such that optimal cardiovascular wellness can be attained within multiple contexts of health states to increase a healthy lifespan and longevity; 2) behavior change skills for risk factor reduction; 3) risk factors and risk reduction approaches with special populations defined by gender, , age and aging, heath states, and health equity issues; and 4) high level roles for cardiovascular nurses as provider - risk assessor, communicator and care provider; educator, leader, patient and health advocate. Relevant case studies are included throughout to facilitate the application of the content. This book fills a gap in that there is no other book on preventive cardiovascular nursing care and roles , and it provides support for the nurse to lead relevant interdisciplinary teams. The book will empower nurses to build knowledge and skills for cardiovascular prevention and to provide leadership for optimal cardiovascular wellness for patients and communities.
