First edition of 2007 and the revised reprints of 2012 were well received by PGs and other medical fraternity. This 2nd edition has been thoroughly revised and updated as per the suggestions & feedbacks from PGs, practicing Physicians & Cardiologists with more illustrations, tables, added flow charts , video and audio tagging so as to make it more lucid, and understandable, that will benefit UG medical students also. Features:- A new chapter "Cardiovascular System Examination in Common Heart Diseases" discusses general physical examination. Pulse, BP, JVP besides ,Inspection ,Palpation ,Percussion, Auscultatory findings and investigations required for diagnosis & management of common 25 heart diseases both acquired and congenital
- An attempt has been made to video case chapters 13 to 22 i.e. General Physical Examination, Pulse, BP measurement, JV Pulse and Cardiovascular System Examination of common heart diseases, which will greatly help in understanding Clinical Cardiology
- Similarly Clinical Electrocardiography has been expanded to 15 chapters with more illustrations and flow charts for easy and better comprehension
- This edition also includes an introductory chapter on "CT Coronary Angiography and Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Imaging", which are the recent advances in armamentaria of investigations and have become essential for the management of cardiovascular diseases
- Portraits of Stalwarts whose discoveries and inventions enabled us to understand the Evidence based Clinical Cardiology comprehensively and scientifically, which paved the way for better Management skills have been added as a humble tribute
