Urgent Interventional Therapies will focus on the interventional procedures performed in the most serious and critical cases of cardiovascular and peripheral artery disease, where immediate specialist care and surgery are required such as cardiac arrest, aneurysm, and pulmonary embolism. A major focus throughout will be to illustrate the differences between urgent interventions and interventions performed to manage chronic conditions. In addition, a section on emerging experimental therapies will cover the exciting new treatments of the future, including cell therapy, aqueous oxygen therapy, cryotherapy, and therapeutic hypothermia. Each chapter follows a consistent template of background; indication; review of evidence; device description; technique of procedure; follow-up care; and complications. 52 high-definition surgical videos, complete with tips and tricks will provide a wonderful visual learning tool. Dr. Kipshidze and his co-editors represent some of the world's leading experts in this area and have recruited a truly stellar team of international authors to provide expert knowledge into each topic. As a result, Urgent Interventional Therapies will be invaluable to all interventional cardiologists who, as a result of the increasingly need for urgent interventions, need to expand their reportoire of surgical and clinical skills.
