Contemporary Heart Transplantation provides a one-of- a-kind volume that includes all aspects of heart transplantation from its historic beginning to its current day standards which now make the procedure a long-term treatment option for heart failure patients.  The subjects covered include technical aspects of the procurement and implant procedures, as well as the medical nuances of pre-operative preparation and post-transplant immunosuppression management; the current day multi-disciplinary make up of the transplant team along with information on the keys to building and running a successful transplant program; regulatory standards and listing policies and the impact of the growing mechanical circulatory support technologies on the transplant field; and emerging technologies and future possibilities. All chapters are written by experts in the field and include the most up-to-date peer reviewed studies and clinical guidelines. This book provides an ever-changing reference that will become the text of choice for those beginning or continuing their transplant careers.Organ and Tissue Transplantation,2570-1592Surgical transplantationCardiologyAnesthesiologyTransplant Surgeryhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H59117Cardiologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H33037Anesthesiologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H13001Surgical transplantation.Cardiology.Anesthesiology.Transplant Surgery.Cardiology.Anesthesiology.617.954Bogar Lindaedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtStempien-Otero Apriledthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtBOOK9910736002403321Contemporary Heart Transplantation1737400UNINA
