Controversies in cardiology
Controversies in cardiology[electronic resource] /edited by John A. Ambrose, Alfredo E. Rodriguez. - Cham :Springer International Publishing :2015. - xviii, 417 p. :ill. (some col.), digital ;24 cm.

Section 1. Special situations of controversial, increased, or unknown cardiovascular risk -- Optimal management of old and new CV risk factors -- Angiographic narrowing prior to ST elevation MI. Are the lesions non-obstructive? -- Preventing future acute coronary events - Identify and treat vulnerable plaques or vulnerable, high risk patients? -- Treatment of diabetes and coronary artery disease -- Elevated triglycerides and atherosclerosis -- Patent foramen ovale and stroke -- Systolic hypertension in the elderly -- Section 2. Cardiovascular diagnosis -- CT angiography vs routine stress testing in patients with chest pain seen in the emergency room to exclude coronary artery disease -- Takotsubo cardiomyopathy- frequency, diagnosis and management -- Chest pain in women - evaluation and management -- Section 3. Cardiovascular management -- Myocardial infarction and "normal" coronary arteries on angiography -- Management of intractable angina when PCI or CABG is not an option -- Invasive management of CAD in patients on anticoagulants -- Managing intracoronary thrombus during PCI -- Optimal management of multivessel disease - PCI vs CABG vs medical therapy alone -- Appropriate therapy for severe left main disease -- Radial vs femoral procedures for angiography and PCI -- DAPT after stenting in stable and acute coronary syndromes - does the drug combination really matter? -- CAD management in patients with significant renal dysfunction or on dialysis -- What is the optimal stent design? -- Oral pharmacotherapy in the prevention of restenosis: prednisolone, rapamune, colchicine and cilostazol -- When should ablation be considered in the treatment of atrial fibrillation? -- Use of advanced and expensive cardiac procedures in the very elderly- Can or should we limit access? -- Cost benefits of TAVR- Should the indications be expanded?

This book considers several clinical and interventional topics for which there is either uncertainty, continued debate and/or no consensus based on current guidelines. Leading international experts explore each controversy, probing the existing evidence and current opinions. Each chapter outlines the unresolved issues and includes a balanced and scholarly discussion of the subject, concluding with possible solutions and learned opinions on the subject. While there are many guidelines in cardiology, new and on-going trials that address new treatments indicate that there are still many unanswered questions. Controversies in Cardiology provides a concise approach to aid busy cardiologists and trainees in choosing the most suitable management solutions and correctly applying these to their patients.
