Current Medical Diagnosis and Treatment Cardiology for DM/DNB Trainees and Cardiologists | Cardiology Reference with ESC Guidelines, Drug Tables, and Flowcharts | Cardiovascular Medicine: 1

Current Medical Diagnosis and Treatment Cardiology, 1st Edition , edited by Dr Suman Bhandari (Director, Interventional Cardiology, Fortis Escorts Heart Institute, New Delhi), is a multi-contributor postgraduate core text that consolidates the current approach to cardiology diagnosis and management in one concise, chapter-wise reference. Each of its 16 chapters is authored by a distinct contributing specialist, giving readers a broad, up-to-date sweep of clinical cardiology within a single volume. The book progresses from foundational clinical skills - physical examination and ECG interpretation - through core diagnostic modalities (echocardiography including ICE, stress testing) and major disease areas (coronary artery disease, valvular heart disease, hypertension, heart failure, congenital heart disease) to advanced and emergency topics (interventional cardiology, cardiac emergencies, newer cardiac drugs, pharmacology of diuretics), closing with dedicated chapters on recent landmark clinical trials and the fundamentals of biostatistics for research and literature review. Chapters are built around current international guideline references (ESC 2024 and ISH 2020 definitions are cited in the hypertension chapter), detailed diagnostic and drug-dosing tables, practical recommendation boxes, illustrated pathophysiology figures, and step-by-step management flowcharts, structured for quick clinical decision-making rather than exhaustive prose. Who This Book Is For: DM/DNB Cardiology trainees: a core postgraduate text consolidating diagnosis and current management across all major cardiology sub-topics, useful for both exam preparation and day-to-day ward or OPD reference. Practicing cardiologists, including interventional cardiologists: an updated quick-reference for current guideline-based protocols, comorbidity-based drug choices, and recent clinical trial data. Postgraduate medical students: a chapter-wise core reference spanning the full breadth of clinical cardiology, from basic physical examination to advanced interventions. Physicians and internists: a practical guide to diagnosing and managing common cardiac presentations such as hypertension, heart failure, and coronary artery disease seen in general practice. Why This Book Helps: Consolidates a fast-moving field: brings together current diagnostic standards and recent clinical trial outcomes so readers do not need to track multiple guideline updates separately. Simplifies comorbidity-based prescribing: matches specific cardiac comorbidities, such as heart failure, atrial fibrillation, and chronic kidney disease, to the appropriate first-line drug classes in dedicated tables. Structures complex protocols into algorithms: step-by-step flowcharts for hypertension management and cardiovascular risk stratification reduce clinical decision-making time. Builds academic and research skills: a dedicated biostatistics chapter and a recent-clinical-trials chapter support postgraduate thesis work and literature review alongside clinical learning. Bridges beginner to expert: written to serve both those new to cardiology and those already established in the field, so it works as a learning text and a practice refresher alike. Key Features: 16 chapters spanning the full range of clinical cardiology, from physical examination and ECG basics to interventional cardiology, structural heart disease, and cardiac emergencies. Updated with current international guidelines, including ESC 2024 and ISH 2020 hypertension guideline definitions and thresholds. Detailed comorbidity-matched drug tables (11 tables in the hypertension chapter alone) covering conditions such as heart failure, atrial fibrillation, and chronic kidney disease. Step-by-step management flowcharts and practical recommendation boxes, including home and ambulatory blood pressure measurement and hypertensive emergency workup, for rapid bedside or OPD decision-making. Dedicated chapters on recent landmark clinical trials and fundamentals of biostatistics to support postgraduate exam preparation and research work.
