Description
Understanding clinical trials and the resulting outcomes is important to understanding the management of cardiovascular health. This new edition (a companion to Braunwalds Heart Disease) covers important new trials in cardiology therapies and prevention of cardiovascular problems. The world authorities on pharmacologic clinical trials write about the trials, the outcomes and importance for clinical practice.

This book gives the general cardiologist insight into the development of new therapies in cardiology as well as the process of how trials were used for those therapies. In addition to providing a manual for how to establish trials, trials for treatment and prevention are covered.

This book offers indispensable guidance for clinical decision-making in all patient care settings!
