Details: Increasing numbers of interventional procedures including angioplasty, fibrinolysis, coronary stenting, and others are now being performed in the cardiac catheterisation laboratory. The rapid growth rate of interventional radiology means that more and more nurses, cardiovascular technicians and related professionals will be faced with the challenges of caring for patients undergoing these procedures. Until now no nursing text has offered comprehensive coverage of all interventional procedures. The authors (who are renowned for their teaching and research in this field) provide organised guidance that emphasises nursing care of the patient and nursing responsibilities during the procedure. Coverage includes treatment of coronary artery disease, peripheral vascular disease, clinical pathways, and much more. No professional who deals with cardiac clients should be without this essential reference
