Most cardiac disorders  present with different symptoms and signs, require a different  diagnostic and therapeutic approach, and also have a different  prognosis in the elderly as compared to younger patients. \u003cbr\u003e  \u003cem\u003eCardiovascular Disease in the Elderly\u003c\/em\u003e provides a comprehensive,  up-to-date guide to the physician, representing a pioneering work in  this increasingly complex area. For this third edition most of the  chapters have been completely rewritten, some by different authors.  Four new chapters have been added, dealing with cardiac  transplantation, invasive cardiovascular procedures, dietary  considerations and ethical considerations. It cannot be denied that  invasive procedures and transplantation are highly controversial in  this area, and the ethical dilemmas involved are ably discussed by Dr  Davis and associates. \u003cbr\u003e  All chapters are supplied with a thorough list of references, making  this third edition of \u003cem\u003eCardiovascular Disease in the Elderly\u003c\/em\u003e the  most thorough, concise guide for the practicing physician. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2012-10-12\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9781461365600\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-1-4615-3516-4\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 240cm x160cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 578\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44398564343948,"sku":"9781461365600","price":198.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9781461365600.jpg?v=1755437554","url":"https:\/\/lateknightbooks.com\/products\/9781461365600","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
