MANDATORY FOR ALL HEALTHCARE PROFESSIONALS IN THIS THERAPY., April 24, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Mechanical Circulatory Support (Landes Bioscience Medical Handbook (Vademecum)) (Spiral-bound)
There is a growing realization that the clinical efficacy ofmechanical circulatory support is not solely a function of blood pumpdesign, but is also dependent on the quality of the infrastructurewhich has been developed to support the programme. This book is both an authoritative statement of this principle and a welcome addition to the artificial heart literature. Information is presented in a clear, concise yet technically detailed manner. The fact that the editor has written eight of the 12 chapters is testament to the breadth and depth of his experience.
Chapters dedicated to special clinical situations and the anaesthetic management of ventricular assist device recipients make a further contribution to the text. The modest price tag ... makes this publication a mandatory purchase for all health care professionals with a serious interest in this therapy.
