Publisher's Synopsis
This user-friendly review question book is geared to interventional cardiology board candidates either for initial certification or recertification. It contains 900 questions in the same proportion as the actual exam to ensure highly targeted, high-yield preparation. Answers with brief explanations and references are included. Indications for particular procedures—a major focus of the board exam—are integrated throughout the text, particularly in the context of ACC/AHA guidelines.
More than 250 angiograms and other illustrations reinforce key concepts. Separate chapters cover ACC/AHA guidelines for percutaneous coronary intervention, chronic stable angina, acute coronary syndromes, and ST-elevation myocardial infarction. A chapter on test-taking is also included.
