Full Description
Geared to cardiology fellows in electrophysiology rotations, "Electrophysiology: The Basics" provides very specific information based on the outline that specifies what content must be covered in training programs. This pocket guide is authored by prominent electrophysiology instructors and is very practical, discussing the cases the trainee will be seeing. Advanced information is presented in an accessible format; traditional didactic text is combined with bulleted lists and limited, but seminal references. This book will appeal to all cardiology fellows, residents, physicians interested in recertification, medical students, nurses in the electrophysiology lab, and the arrhythmia/device clinic.
