Excerpt from Graphic Methods in Heart Disease Graphic methods of investigating the disorders and diseases of the heart have opened up numerous avenues of research, and it is now generally recognised that valuable information is obtained by such means, concerning diagnosis, prognosis and treatment. The value of sphygmographic tracings is slight in the absence of simultaneous records from the apex beat, jugular pulse or the liver, and all who confine themselves to records of the radial pulse very soon realise the limitations and comparative barrenness of this field of investigation. It is very different, however, when combined records are taken: the vagaries of the heart are then full of meaning and interest; they can be explained satisfactorily and their full import comprehended. An arrhythmia which was formerly viewed with vague distrust and misgiving is recognised as simple and harmless, while other variations from the normal, slight though they may be, are recognised as ominous and of moment.

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Today hundreds of thousands of Americans carry pacemakers and implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (ICDs) within their bodies. These battery-powered machines—small computers, in fact—deliver electricity to the heart to correct dangerous disorders of the heartbeat. But few doctors, patients, or scholars know the history of these devices or how "heart-rhythm management" evolved into a multi-billion-dollar manufacturing and service industry. Machines in Our Hearts tells the story of these two implantable medical devices. Kirk Jeffrey, a historian of science and technology, traces the development of knowledge about the human heartbeat and follows surgeons, cardiologists, and engineers as they invent and test a variety of electronic devices. Numerous small manufacturing firms jumped into pacemaker production but eventually fell by the wayside, leaving only three American companies in the business today. Jeffrey profiles pioneering heart surgeons, inventors from the realms of engineering and medical research, and business leaders who built heart-rhythm management into an industry with thousands of employees and annual revenues in the hundreds of millions. As Jeffrey shows, the pacemaker (first implanted in 1958) and the ICD (1980) embody a paradox of high-tech health care: these technologies are effective and reliable but add billions to the nation's medical bill because of the huge growth in the number of patients who depend on implanted devices to manage their heartbeats.

The first edition of the Encyclopedia of Optical and Photonic Engineering provided a valuable reference concerning devices or systems that generate, transmit, measure, or detect light, and to a lesser degree, the basic interaction of light and matter. This Second Edition not only reflects the changes in optical and photonic engineering that have occurred since the first edition was published, but also: Boasts a wealth of new material, expanding the encyclopedia’s length by 25 percent Contains extensive updates, with significant revisions made throughout the text Features contributions from engineers and scientists leading the fields of optics and photonics today With the addition of a second editor, the Encyclopedia of Optical and Photonic Engineering, Second Edition offers a balanced and up-to-date look at the fundamentals of a diverse portfolio of technologies and discoveries in areas ranging from x-ray optics to photon entanglement and beyond. This edition’s release corresponds nicely with the United Nations General Assembly’s declaration of 2015 as the International Year of Light, working in tandem to raise awareness about light’s important role in the modern world.

If you understand heart failure, you understand cardiology This book applies practical clinical concepts to the latest four-stage model of heart failure from preclinical risk and early asymptomatic disease to classic symptomatic heart failure and finally advanced heart failure. This framework emphasizes a tailored approach to ongoing heart failure assessment to guide therapy and improve outcomes. Features: Illustrated with over 250 full-color figuresSpecific recommendations backed by clinical trial dataPractical algorithms for diagnosis and therapy Topics include: Prevention of heart failureIdentification and treatment of structural heart disease prior to heart failureHow to combine lifestyle changes, medications, and devices to improve outcomesReversing decompensated heart failureKey indicators of advanced heart failure and appropriate treatment optionsEmerging new therapies “This book will be valuable to all training and practicing clinicians. He writes as if you and he are both completing patient rounds together. Brian E. Jaski is to be commended for capturing the essence of treating this formidable clinical challenge and demystifying the stages of heart failure.” --From the foreword by Sidney C. Smith, Jr. MD FACC, FAHA, FESC, FACP Professor of Medicine, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill Past President, American Heart Association Past President, World Heart Federation “The culmination of Dr. Jaski’s 25 years of teaching experience and clinical acumen is now available in one highly readable text designed to highlight key information and stimulate the learning process.” --Dylan E. Wessman, MD, FACC, FACP Program Director, Cardiovascular Disease Fellowship Naval Medical Center San Diego San Diego, California
