The Female Electrocardiogram: Special Repolarization Features, Gender Differences, and the Risk of Adverse Cardiac Events

Autor Pentti M. Rautaharju
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 26 mar 2015
Recent research cited above has documented that QRS/T angle and other novel repolarization measures of deviant repolarization are potent predictors of cardiac morbidity and mortality over and above the traditional risk factors such as old ECG-MI, ECG-LVH or QT prolongation. A novel ECG model of repolarization based on electrophysiological considerations developed by the author has been the cornerstone in this search for improved predictors. The concepts involved in these quantitative methods are advanced and clinicians may not readily understand their utility in patient care. Their value is  perhaps more easily comprehended by investigators who are collaborating in preventive studies and evaluation of adverse effects of cardio-active agents. It is expected that this book will facilitate understanding how these new ECG finding can be used in both clinical and epidemiological application.​

Recenzii

“The purpose is to provide up-to-date information about current electrocardiogram predictors for coronary heart disease morbidity and mortality. … The intended audience includes medical students, residents, fellows, general practitioners, and consultants. It is an excellent guide for any practitioner evaluating electrocardiograms. … The book is short and sweet, yet presents comprehensive and up-to-date information. Its specific focus on ECG gender differences in predicting the risk of adverse cardiac events is priceless for any clinician involved in reading and evaluating ECGs.” (Parham Parto, Doody's Book Reviews, June, 2015)

Textul de pe ultima copertă

This book reviews the promising new electrocardiographic (ECG) predictors of cardiac morbidity and mortality with the primary objective being to evaluate gender differences in special ECG features and in ECG predictors for the risk of adverse cardiac events and to explore mechanisms for gender differences in risk predictors.
 
The Female Electrocardiogram elucidates the emergence of gender differences in ECG features and evaluates repolarization-related ECG predictors of various clinical disease categories with a special scope to interpret the mechanism and gender differences of the findings. The author examines how the predictors of adverse cardiac events are linked to basic electrophysiological finding whenever adequate information is available in this rapidly advances realm of research. The overall goal of the book is to facilitate understanding of the mechanisms and clinical relevance of repolarization abnormalities in both clinical and epidemiological applications, and as such will be of great interest to all who manage patients using ECG whether they be cardiac electrophysiologists, clinical cardiologists, critical care physicians or any medical professional in the disciplines covered.
