ESC and ACC/AHA guidelines are continually being updated and often overlap in their advice, making it difficult for the cardiologist to obtain a clear picture of the right way to diagnose and treat disease according to the latest evidence base. To solve this problem, the authors have scrutinized all available guidelines and research, collating the results into over 600 easily-accessible tables which provide the most recent recommendation by both ACC/AHA and ESC on every clinical issue. Continually updated every six months, the online version of Clinical Cardiology: Current Practice Guidelines Online considers all these recommendations in the context of the latest research and evolving evidence most relevant to the clinician, in order to offer a detailed and consistently up-to-date insight into how best to proceed with treatment. These tables are discussed as part of 84 comprehensive and fully-searchable chapters on pathophysiology, diagnosis and management. Each chapter offers concise information on definition, epidemiology, and pathophysiology of the disease, reflecting the latest published research, which is referenced and hyperlinked for easy access. Following this is clear and instructive discussion of possible presentations and all clinical investigations that may be necessary. The authors have rigorously examined the implications of published guidance, and where appropriate considered new evidence that questions the validity of specific recommendations, as well as the opinion of established experts and other data such as FDA alerts. This guidance is supported by over 140 full-colour images, fully downloadable to Powerpoint slides, which reinforce key points and clarify difficult concepts. Providing at-a-glance access to the latest guidance, Clinical Cardiology: Current Practice Guidelines Online offers a diagnosis and management toolkit which no practising cardiologist can afford to be without, and which cannot fail to establish itself as an essential part of everyday clinical management. ------------- Our members see more.
