Description
As a leading reference on pediatric cardiology and congenital heart disease, Anderson's Pediatric Cardiology provides exhaustive coverage of pediatric cardiovascular anomalies, sequelae related to these anomalies, comorbidities and neurodevelopmental problems, and current methods for management and treatment. The newly streamlined 5th Edition addresses significant and ongoing changes in practice, including recent developments in fetal, neonatal, and adult congenital heart conditions. The outstanding illustration program provides superb visual guidance and is supplemented with a remarkable collection of more than 350 professionally curated images and videos, many new to this edition.According to Anderson’s Pediatric Cardiology, 5th edition editors, Tretter, et al: “Textbooks continue to serve as essential central repositories of knowledge for postgraduate education in paediatric cardiology, despite the widespread availability of digital learning tools. Recent studies confirm that trainees still value textbooks for their structure, depth, and accessibility, while also requesting improved pedagogy and organization.”
Key Features
- Offers authoritative, long-term coverage of a broad spectrum of cardiology conditions, including congenital heart disease, adult congenital heart disease (ACHD), acquired heart disease, cardiomyopathies, and rhythm disturbances
- Features a newly streamlined format better incorporating the developmental and anatomical building blocks into clinical diagnosis and management, including diagnostic and management algorithms for quick reference guides. Learning Objectives and Chapter Summary Tables are also included
- Includes exquisite specimen images by Dr. Robert Anderson and Diane Spicer, dissected in easily recognizable analogous imaging planes.
