THE AHA CLINICAL SERIES ELLIOTT ANTMAN, MD, SERIES EDITOR The strategic driving force behind the American Heart Association's mission of healthier lives free of cardiovascular disease and stroke is to change practice by providing information and solutions to healthcare professionals.

This new title in the American Heart Association Clinical Series offers an up-to-date overview of the causes and damage related to dyssynchronopathy - a new pathophysiological entity related to spontaneous or pacing-induced mechanical abnormalities which causes heart failure. It presents the most recent diagnostic non-invasive tools and provides simple, practice-oriented therapeutic proposals for heart failure patients.
