Cardiac arrhythmias

Papers presented at an international congress held in Valencia, Spain (1987) represent a state-of-the-art analysis of recent progress in the diagnosis and treatment of arrhythmias. New approaches include high resolution ECG, tachycardia treatment with the implantable cardioverterdefibrillator and surgical arrhythmia treatment as well as syncope, sudden death, arrhythmias in athletes and children, antiarrhythmic agents and arrhythmias in noncardiac disease. An important survey of a frequent cause of death and morbidity. Annotation copyright Book News, Inc. Portland, Or.
