The rapid development of myocardial revascularization from angioplasty to stents, and now to new laser technology has meant that there is an abundance of information available which has not been distilled into a user-friendly format. Confusion exists as to where we are with angiogenesis: what can it do? how do we do it? what is acceptable as a satisfactory result? Drs Kornowski, Epstein and Leon answer the need for a concise reference on the subject. They have assembled a team of internationally-recognised experts who are at the forefront of research and clinical application on myocardial revascularization and angiogenesis. They examine direct, transmyocardial and percutaneous approaches to revascularization. In the latter part of the Handbook, there is discussion about growth factors protein and gene therapy which should serve as a guide and provide background facts so as to ensure greater informational access to the interventional cardiologist.

This is a unique work, which documents how homeopathy can achieve predictably successful results in emergencies such as anaphylactic shock, acute abdomen, acute asthma, myocardial infarction of the inferior wall, and oedema of the glottis. The book contains 145 well-documented case histories, similar to those written by the old American homeopathic clinicians. In each case it is clearly demonstrated how to quickly find the best remedy using straightforward Kentian repertorisation. The results are impressive. The authors show that conventional treatment and homeopathy can perfectly complement each other. This work offers also a lot of general information on homeopathy like potentisation, source materials used in homeopathic remedies and methods of administration. It also comprises a stringently edited materia medica of the most important 70 remedies for ICU and emergency situations. Both editors have extensive experience in emergency medicine and homeopathy. Michael Frass is former head of the intensive internal medicine unit at the Medical University of Vienna and Martin Bünder also has long-standing service in rescue and emergency medicine. "At first glance the idea that homeopathy can help in intensive care and emergency medicine seems far-fetched, since we normally associate an intensive care ward with high-tech equipment rather than gentle remedies. So it is all the more surprising to see how sensitively authors Michael Frass and Martin Bündner deal with this controversial field, which is often a matter of life or death. Their main focus is on integration. What stands out here is the high-class presentation of case-related detail, including repertorisation and remedy selection as well as evaluation and criticism of each case. The treatment section remains exceptionally clear, guaranteeing the practical usefulness of the high-quality scientific information in this book. This book is to be recommended not just to homeopaths but also to doctors working in a co

The presentation of new, emerging concepts of the pathogenesis and management of acute Myocardial Infarction is the unprecedented objective of this book. Based upon the Symposium on Acute MI, this timely text presents the advances that have taken place on several fronts in the past five years, particularly in the area related to thrombolytic therapy. Separated into four sections, the book covers the mechanisms of acute MI; medical problems of detection, sizing, and damage; non-invasive medical management; and invasive management. Of particular interest is the section on non-invasion management which focuses on the results from the TIMI Clinical Trial and the successful use of tissue plasminogen activator (tPA). Focus is also placed on the long-term follow up of patients treated with thrombolytic therapy and the no-reflow phenomenon in the stunned myocardium. A collaboration of recognized experts in their fields, this text is of extreme value to the practicing cardiologist, radiologist, surgeon and emergency care physician.The text's first section explores the basic mechanisms of coronary artery contraction, coronary artery stenosis and vasopasm. Its second section develops the pathophysiology of acute MI including the reversibility of ischemic myocardial injury, and methods for detecting the size and extent of myocardial infarcts. The crucial role of cardiac muscle cell membrane damage is also discussed. The physiology and pharmacology of tPA are described in the third section as are the results from the initial phase 1 TIMI trial. The final section which concentrates on surgical procedures, also provides future directions for the diagnosis and treatment of acute Myocardial Infarctions.
