Updated to include the newest devices and procedures, this practical reference is a clinically oriented guide to interventional cardiology. Chapters by the foremost experts present step-by-step approaches to specific clinical problems and offer guidelines for selecting the most appropriate device and technique. The authors' recommendations are backed by their extensive experience and by evidence-based clinical trials. This Third Edition describes the latest stents and stenting procedures-including local drug delivery with coated stents-and provides state-of-the-art information on local myocyte injection, distal protection devices, peripheral vascular intervention, and new adjunctive therapies. The concluding chapter previews future developments in the field.
