Description
In the fast paced world of clinical training, students are often inundated
with the what of electrophysiology without the why . This new text is designed
to tell the story of electrophysiology so that the seemingly disparate myriad
observations of clinical practice come into focus as a cohesive and predictable
whole.
Presents a unique, conceptually-guided approach to understanding the movement
of electrical current through the heart, the impact of various disease states
and the positive effect of treatment.
Reviews electrophysiologic principles and the analytic tools which, when combined
with a firm grasp of EP mechanisms, allow the reader to think through any situation.
Presents the mathematics necessary for the practice of cardiac electrophysiology
in an accessible and understandable manner.
Contains accompanying video clips, including computer simulations showing the
flow of electrical current through the heart, which help explain and visualise
concepts discussed in the text.
Includes helpful chapter summaries and full color illustrations aid comprehension.
