A unique combination of case studies and workbook exercises helps you master the practice of measuring heart rhythm disordersIdeal for both practicing physicians, residents and fellows preparing for board exams, Clinical Electrophysiology Review, Third Edition serves partly as a case study guide and partly as a workbook to challenging studies in advanced electrodiagnostics. The book is filled with illustrations to help you recognize common rhythm disturbances and uncommon arrhythmias. This new edition includes 23 all-new cases on the surface ECG. Chapters include:Analysis of Complex Electrophysiologic DataElectrophysiologic Approach to the ECGCorrelation of Intracardiac Data with the Surface ECGFundamentals of Clinical ElectrophysiologyNarrow QRS TachycardiaWide QRS Complex TachycardiaCatheter AblationStrategies for the Examination Board Questions

* From senior electrophysiologist and world-class educator George Klein, a fully illustrated guide with over 100 intracardiac tracings and figures that allow the physician to approach electrophysiologic problems effectively and systematically. The book is especially focused on electrophysiological maneuvers and provides a clear and understandable guide to their proper selection and interpretation using abundant clinical examples. Defines the integral role for "e;traditional"e; electrogram (EGM) analysis in order to understand the mechanism of a tachycardia. It goes without saying that a correct arrhythmia diagnosis is a prerequisite to catheter ablation regardless of the presence of sophisticated mapping and imaging technologies. Electrophysiological maneuvers are fundamental to this process, and proper selection and interpretation of maneuvers constitute a core skill of the electrophysiologist. In this volume, we make the case that most maneuvers are fundamentally similar in principle and can be understood by appreciating a few basic physiological and anatomical principles. The art lies not in a comprehensive knowledge by rote of every maneuver or its application, but rather a systematic approach using common principles. We illustrate this by showing abundant examples and emphasizing the "e;game plan,"e; including checklists that can be applied to virtually any maneuver. -George J. Klein

When George Klein was thirteen, he couldn't have known how important the new kid in class - the one with the guitar, the boy named Elvis - would become in his life. But from the first time GK (as he was nicknamed by Elvis) heard this kid sing, he knew that Elvis Presley was someone extraordinary. In this heartfelt, entertaining and affectionate memoir, George Klein writes candidly about their close friendship, which began at school and continued through Elvis's rise to fame and the wild swirl of his tumultuous life, right up to the singer's tragic death. Writing with the authority of someone who was in the midst of it all, from the good times at Graceland and hanging out with Hollywood stars to butting heads with Elvis's iron-handed manager, Colonel Tom Parker, GK reveals who the King really was and how he acted when the stage lights were off. Full of anecdotes and first-hand accounts of some of the most defining moments in the legend's life, Elvis: My Best Man captures the true essence of the man behind the music.
