Cardiac arrhythmias are often tricky and intimidating for the clinicians (cardiologists, internists), medical trainees (residents & fellows), nurses and technicians while working in out-patient and emergency departments. Authored by electrophysiologists, this text is meant for the clinicians to understand the mechanisms of origin of arrhythmias and their clinical presentation, make accurate diagnosis and select the most appropriate therapeutic interventions. Clinicians can use this guide for quick reference during clinics, ward rounds, and while in transit. Starting with palpitations and syncope, the chapters cover all types of arrhythmias, sudden cardiac death, anti-arrhythmic drugs, rhythm management devices and common electrophysiologic procedures. Supported with numerous tracings, tables, flow charts, and bulleted clinical points, the book enables easier understanding of difficult concepts of arrhythmias, leading to a more rational approach to treatment. Chapter on electrophysiologic procedures covers basic information on the state-of-the-art invasive electrophysiologic study and ablation therapy helping readers understand how to utilize these advances in therapy.
Dr. Sanjay Dixit received his Bachelor of Medicine and Bachelor of Surgery (1988) and MD (1992) from MLN Medical College, Allahabad, India. He then spent 2 years at Escorts Heart Institute and Research Center in Delhi, India (until 1994). In 1995, Dr. Dixit moved to the U.S. and performed his internship and residency in Internal Medicine at S.U.N.Y. in Syracuse, NY. Of note, during his medicine residency he was named "Best Intern" and "Best Resident" and was also elected to the Alpha Omega Alpha (AOA) society. Dr. Dixit then completed a three-year fellowship in Cardiology at S.U.N.Y. in Syracuse, NY. In July of 2000, he began a two-year clinical electrophysiology fellowship at the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania. In July of 2002 Dr. Dixit joined the Penn faculty as Assistant Professor in the CE track of the Cardiovascular Division of Medicine in the School of Medicine and was appointed Director of the Cardiac Electrophysiology Program at the Philadelphia VA Medical Center. He was promoted to Associate Professor in July of 2010. Dr. Dixit is ABIM-certified in Internal Medicine (1997), Cardiovascular Disease (2002; recertified 2010) and Clinical Cardiac Electrophysiology (2004).
