Interventional and Acute Cardiac Care Reading

Interventional & Acute Care

Coronary and acute cardiac care written from inside the catheterisation laboratory. These titles cover coronary angiography and its interpretation, percutaneous intervention, primary angioplasty and the golden hour, coronary physiology and intravascular imaging, antithrombotic strategy, and the complications that occur in the laboratory and afterwards on the ward.
The distinguishing feature of this pillar is that the technique detail reflects what actually happens during a case — the decision taken under time pressure with incomplete information — rather than the idealised sequence a textbook describes. Complications are covered as thoroughly as successes, because recognising one early is the skill that separates operators.
Written for interventional trainees and operators, but equally for emergency physicians, intensivists and general cardiologists who receive these patients before and after the procedure and need to know what was done and what to watch for. Free companion articles on stent thrombosis, no-reflow and antiplatelet duration are published in the Academy’s interventional cardiology section.
