Book description
The pace of therapeutic advances in the treatment of cardiovascular
diseases is rapid, and new clinically-relevant information appears
with such frequency that it can be extremely challenging for
clinicians to keep up.
Still, knowledge and interpretation of major clinical trials is
crucial for the range of clinicians who manage cardiovascular
patients, especially since important trial evidence often needs to be
implemented soon after it is published.
Confidently apply gold standard treatment for 10 of the most
critical areas of cardiology
Written by an international
team of experts,
Cardiovascular Clinical Trials: Putting the Evidence into Practice:
- Provides a succinct overview of recent major clinical trials - the
gold standard for all medical treatment - across all the major
cardiovascular subspecialties, to ensure you're up-to-date on the
most critical findings
- Guides cardiology trainees and clinicians on how cardiovascular
clinical trials are designed and conducted, including statistical
methodology, so you can conduct and/or appraise future trials yourself
- Addresses methodology as well as clinical effectiveness
- Offers evidence-based assessments on the most effective treatments
and authoritative clinical information on management of the
conditions so you can confidently apply what you learn
Physicians, surgeons, specialist nurses - any clinician seeking an
