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 defibrillatorsVentricular Arrhythmias and Sudden Cardiac Death provides the information that cardiologists, cardiac electrophysiologists, cardiac electrophysiology fellows, scientists, industry, and associated professionals need to know about current and evolving Ventricular Tachyarrhythmia treatment and diagnosis. As the most comprehensive book on this topic, it will serve as the text that this readership will turn to first.

“This leading text serves as a guide to this area of increasing clinical importance. As the most comprehensive book on this topic, it will serve as the text that this readership will turn to first. This comprehensive book provides detailed insight into the mechanisms and treatment of ventricular arrhythmia. This is a well designed primer on the intricate mechanisms of ventricular arrhythmias and on the modalities available for diagnosis and treatment of patients. Written by eminent authors with experience in both the clinic and the laboratory, it provides a valuable synthesis of current perspectives on state-of-the-art in the field.” (Doody's Book Reviews, October 2008)
