Cardiovascular prevention and rehabilitation

Provides practical guidance for all cardiologists and other health personnel engaged in the management of cardiac patients. The book follows the concept of "seamless care service", i.e. a streamlined combination of preventive and rehabilitative methods in order both to add years to life and life to years. Each section contains a short summary and tables with practical guidance statements. Furthermore, all sections are formatted as to follow the natural course of cardiovascular disease, starting off with focus on primary preventive care and finishing with the demands on rehabilitation of the patient with advanced disease, thus following the "seamless care" concept.
