The Heart Companion Handbook

A valuable adjunct to the most prestigious reference in cardiology, The Heart, the Handbook provides concise, yet authoritative guidance necessary for the diagnosis and treatment of cardiovascular diseases. Geared to the needs of third- and fourth-year medical students, residents, house officers and other health care providers, this Handbook has been carefully designed for ready reference in the inpatient, outpatient and emergency services setting. Throughout, the Handbook of the Heart is cross-referenced with the more detailed and in-depth discussions found in the seventh edition of The Heart. Taken together, these two works comprise a comprehensive and up-to-date review on the latest advances in cardiology.
