Interventional cardiology in the elderly
Interventional cardiology in the elderly[electronic resource] /edited by Harald Rittger. - Cham :Springer International Publishing :2015. - vii, 162 p. :ill., digital ;24 cm.

Epidemiology of interventional procedures -- Pathophysiology of the aging heart and its impact on interventional procedures -- The role of geriatric preconditions (frailty and disability) in elderly patients -- Comorbid burden and its impact on outcome -- Coronary interventions in stable CAD -- Coronary interventions in ACS -- CABG vs. PCI in elderly patients -- Non-coronary interventions in the elderly -- Pharmacotherapy in elderly patients -- Ethical aspects of coronary interventions in elderly and very elderly patients.

This book provides an in-depth review of current practices in the treatment of elderly patients with coronary artery disease. It presents an update of existing literature, reflecting the current science of elderly patients with stable angina, acute coronary syndromes, and patients who go on to receive coronary artery bypass grafting procedures. Evidence is often limited or non-existent in the elderly patient group. As such, the main challenge for further research is to define the role of geriatric preconditions and their impact on outcomes. This book aims to clarify if existing cardiological outcome values such as mortality can be applied to elderly patients, or if other values are more suitable parameters for measuring interventional success. Interventional Cardiology in the Elderly discusses the epidemiological, pathophysiological and ethical aspects of each of these topics and is hence an essential resource for all practicing interventional cardiologists.
