Ventricular arrhythmias and sudden death are responsible for hundreds of thousands of deaths each year throughout the world. Covering the most recent developments in this field, this leading text serves as a guide to this area of increasing clinical importance, addressing a wide range of topics, including:basic mechanisms of ventricular tachycardia and ventricular fibrillationclinical syndromes and etiologiesepidemiology and risk stratificationpharmacologic therapyablation and surgeryimplantable defibrillators Ventricular Arrhythmias and Sudden Cardiac Dea |
