It includes epidemiological, pathophysiological and clinical recommendations for the identification, confirmation and management of the disease. With one score that currently facilitates diagnosing Lyme carditis when patients present with undiagnosed complete heart block (the “SILC Score”), a rapid recognition of Lyme carditis as the cause of conduction disorders is essential to allow early treatment with IV antibiotics with a high probability of complete resolution and avoiding unnecessary pacemaker implantation. Lyme carditis: From A to Z provides a clinical algorithm to facilitate management, pre-discharge evaluations of the conduction system and long-term follow-up of patients properly treated for Lyme carditis. It provides a proven approach to patients implanted with cardiac devices and in whom Lyme carditis is subsequently diagnosed, while it also exploresthe possibility of Lyme dilated cardiomyopathy as a chronic manifestation of Lyme disease. This book therefore represents an original and unique resource that sheds light on an important topic of discussion in many endemic regions of the world.CardiologyInternal medicinePublic healthCardiologyInternal MedicinePublic HealthCardiology.Internal medicine.Public health.Cardiology.Internal Medicine.Public Health.616.12Baranchuk Adrian956396Wamboldt Rachel1433991Wang Chang Nancy1433992MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910754100503321Lyme Carditis3585053UNINA
