Riassunto

A practical, full-color guide with videos, Practical Perioperative Transesophageal Echocardiography, 2nd Edition, by Drs. David Sidebotham, Alan F. Merry, Malcolm E. Leggett, and Mark L. Edwards, will help improve your diagnosis and monitoring of perioperative cardiac patients. Reflecting five years of new research and clinical data in TEE, the book captures the latest developments in the field, and new chapters on epiaortic and 3D echocardiography, echocardiography in the ICU, and echocardiography for adult congenital heart disease have been added. The videos on DVD demonstrate normal and pathologic findings in real time. The result is an outstanding tool for certification preparation and clinical practice.

• Understand the fundamental scientific principles and clinical applications of TEE in heart surgery.
• Find the answers you need quickly with handy hints highlighted in text boxes, key points, and numerous line drawings.
• Prepare for board certification by reviewing slides of key points that are included on the DVD.

• Improve your ability to recognize abnormalities in TEE with extensive videos of both normal and pathologic findings.
• Master new techniques with added chapters on epiaortic echocardiography, 3D echocardiography, echocardiography in the ICU, and echocardiography for adult congenital heart disease.

A top practical guide in perioperative transesophageal echocardiography providing the key principles and techniques for effective patient monitoring is now even more valuable with a new DVD-ROM, updated chapters, and full color to capture the improvements in technology and practice.
