内容説明

Maintaining and enhancing the features that made the previous editions so popular, this authoritative volume investigates the vast scope of silent coronary artery disease - with important implications for its prevention, treatment and management. The third edition of "Silent Myocardial Ischemia and Infarction", organizes all available data on the various aspects of these syndromes bringing the reader up to date on every facet of this rapidly expanding field of research, examining: the pathophysiology and prevalence of asymptomatic heart disease; the detection of ischemic episodes with Holter monitoring and other non-invasive procedures; the progress of studies concerned with whether or not the abolition of ischaemia will improve prognosis; current therapeutic interventions; and more. Providing nearly 500 bibliographic citations, including 150 new references, for further study of up-to-the-minute developments, "Silent Myocardial Ischemia and Infarction, should be of use to cardiologists, cardiovascular and thoracic surgeons, internists, family physicians specializing in cardiology, public health physicians, physiologists, and medical students studying cardiology.

目次

  • Part 1 Pathophysiology of silent myocardial ischaemia: cardiac pain mechanisms
  • alterations in sensitivity to pain in patients with silent myocardial ischaemia
  • the sequence of events during episodes of myocardial ischaemia - where does pain fit in?
  • left ventricular dysfunction and myocardial blood flow disturbances during episodes of silent myocardial ischaemia - is less myocardium at jeopardy than during symptomatic ischaemia?. Part 2 Prevalence of asymptomatic coronary artery disease: prevalence of silent myocardial ischaemia
  • prevalence and distinguishing features of silent myocardial infarctions. Part 3 Detection of asymptomatic coronary artery disease: what can be learned from standard diagnostic procedures?
  • ambulatory electrocardiography (Holter monitoring)
  • exercise testing
  • combining the exercise test with other procedures
  • cardiac catheterization. Part 4 Prognosis in asymptomatic coronary artery disease: prognosis in patients with silent myocardial ischaemia
  • relation of silent myocardial ischaemia to sudden death, silent myocardial infarction and ischaemic cardiomyopathy
  • prognosis after silent myocardial infarction and myocardial infarction without preceding angina. Part 5 Management of patients with asymptomatic coronary artery disease: medical treatment of asymptomatic coronary artery disease
  • surgical treatment of asymptomatic coronary artery disease. Part 6 Future directions: silent myocardial ischaemia and silent myocardial infarction - what issues remain to be resolved?.
