This comprehensive resource combines research from multiple contributors with current guidelines to bridge the knowledge gap for the recognition and management of heart failure in children. Coverage begins with the basic science of heart failure and then progresses through diagnosis, management, treatment, and surgery, finally concluding with advanced special topics, including genetics, self-management, and nanomedicine.
This new edition covers advancements in the field, including additional chapters and discussion on biomarkers, neuromuscular disease, quality of life, palliative care, and the impact of COVID-19 in myocarditis and multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children. It will serve as an indispensable reference to basic science researchers in cardiology, pediatrics, cardiologists, and pediatric cardiologists.
- Combines cutting-edge research with current guidelines from the field
- Provides coverage of the basic science of heart failure, its epidemiology and economic aspects, outpatient and inpatient management, and advanced therapies, including mechanical circulatory support and heart transplantation
- Includes expanded chapters on the immune system and inflammation in the development and progression of heart failure
- Reviews new randomized controlled trials in pediatric heart failure
Basic science researchers in cardiology and pediatrics, cardiologists, pediatric cardiologists, intensive care physicians, and cardiac surgeons
