This is a high-quality overview for providers caring for patients with congenital heart disease that is useful in both outpatient and inpatient settings. The second edition is needed, as it incorporates the latest guidelines. Weighted Numerical Score: 98 - 5 Stars! * Zachary Dowdy, Doody's * This book could be very useful for clinical cardiologists and medical residents, as it has managed to condense a vast amount of information on adult congenital heart disease, while maintaining the practical sense of a pocketbook. * Joaqu'in Rueda Soriano, Revista Espa~nola de Cardiologia * This book is to be recommended for the cardiology trainee, general adult cardiologist and emergency physician wanting access to sensible and easily readable advice * Cardiology News * As with the other specialist handbooks in the Oxford series, this is of a size that will slip into a pocket or desk drawer for easy reference. Sara Thorne and Paul Clift are leading cardiologists (Birmingham) in the management and assessment of congenital heart disease in adults (sometimes called grown up congenital heart disease or GUCH). Their writing is clear and the sections concise. Throughout the book there are many excellent images which really elucidate the text... ideal for those meeting some of these conditions in the emergency department * Amazon review * Very interesting reading for someone with a complex Congenital Heart defect.
As the title suggest this book is really for Specialists and perhaps those who are living with a related disease. Well written with good graphic * Amazon Review *
