Asirvatham Cryoablation in pediatrics / Bryan Canon Endocardial cryoablation of atrial fibrillation / Fiorenzo Gaita Cryosurgery for ventricular tachycardia / Jean-Marc Frapier N2 - Audrius Bredikis, MD and David Wilber, MD, has written a comprehensive text devoted solely to the effective and appropriate use of cryoablation in the management of cardiac arrhythmias. This user-friendly, all-in-one reference provides clear explanations complemented by abundant, high-quality, full-color clinical photos, and at-a-glance tables making it easy to access the information you need to master even the most challenging cryoablation procedures for adult patients, pediatric/adolescent patients, and cardiac surgery patients. Timely new reference on the treatment of Cardiac arrhythmias with cryoablation a much better safety profile compared to radiofrequency ablation, so there is a major shift of interest toward cryoablation UR - uniform resource identifier.
