Cardiovascular disease remains the major cause of morbidity and mortality throughout developed countries and is also rapidly increasing in developing countries. Cardiovascular medicine and the specialty of cardiology continue to expand, and the remit of the cardiologist is forever broader with the development of new sub-specialties. The Oxford Handbook of Cardiology provides a comprehensive but concise guide to all modern cardiological practice with an emphasis on practical clinical management in many different contexts. This second edition addresses all the key advances made in the field since the previous edition, including interventional cardiology, electrophysiology, and pharmacology. It expands the remit to medical students and the more junior doctor while retaining the level of detail required by more senior practitioners within the field.

-Includes specialist sections on common diagnostic tests, management of cardiac problems in pregnancy, and cardiology in developing countries
-Assists readers in unfamiliar territory and is the perfect aide-memoire for the basics

New to this edition:
-Addresses all the recent key advances in the fields of interventional cardiology, electrophysiology, and pharmacology
-Now more relevant to medical students and junior doctors, but still retains the level of detail required by more senior practitioners within the field
