  • This classic textbook on cardiac anatomy has been updated in its fifth edition with additional high quality surgical and pathological photographs, as well as new information and recent findings of the last decade. Beginning with an overview of surgical approaches to the heart, the book goes on to discuss the surgical anatomy of the cardiac chambers, the valves, and the circulation and conduction system within the heart, moving on to cover malformations, lesions, and abnormalities. This edition is informed by the most up-to-date research findings, and a new chapter has been added which reviews cardiac development. A complimentary digital companion now accompanies the book, allowing readers to view the images in high-resolution on screen. Written from the stance of the cardiac surgeon, this updated book is essential reading for consultants and trainees in cardiac surgery, cardiology and cardiovascular radiology, and anatomists.

  • Cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET) is an increasingly important investigation for anaesthesiologists, surgeons, cardiologists, pulmonologists, physiologists, and peri-operative physicians. For trainees, non-experts, or simply those seeking an introduction to interpreting CPETs, this essential book builds layers of knowledge that can be applied in case studies and in future practice. It will help you learn and understand: What is CPET and what are the principles of exercise physiology How to conduct a CPET How to interpret a CPET nine-panel plot How to assess exercise capacity and limitation. This practical and clinical guide is both easy to read and easy to understand and features diagrams illustrating key principles. It outlines the basic physiological principles and takes a step-by-step approach to conducting and interpreting a cardiopulmonary exercise test, together with case studies to consolidate learning. Chapters cover the indications and contraindications of CPET, test safety and complications, spirometry, writing a CPET report, and shared decision-making.
