Essentials of Cardiovascular Examination highlights common mistakes made in cardiovascular examination. The book provides a solid foundation of clinical knowledge for the beginner, and an excellent reference guide for the experienced clinician.



Divided into 53 chapters across four sections, the book begins with guidance on approach to the patient, including cardiac history, general examination, and the anatomy of the heart and coronary circulation. The second section covers the cardiovascular system in detail, with topics including pulse, blood pressure, and percussion of the heart. The third section covers diseases relating to the cardiovascular system, ranging from congenital heart disease to ischemic heart disease and arrhythmias. The final section covers different investigations of the cardiovascular system, including the electrocardiogram, non-invasive imaging, stress tests and cardiac catheterisation.



With 70 images, illustrations and information tables, Essentials of the Cardiovascular System covers anatomy and physiology, physical diagnosis of all common cardiovascular diseases, their investigation and treatment, making this an ideal resource for students preparing for examinations.
