Presented in the context of clinical cases, this unique resource steps medical students through the most common cardiology problems encountered on the ward and discusses the evidence-based treatments used in practice. This problem-based learning mirrors clinical practice, providing a useful clinical approach for students to carry throughout their careers. Written by Atifur Rahman and Simon O'Connor, Problem-based cardiology cases includes considered and wide-ranging coverage of everyday cardiology encounters - from basic bedside issues to controversial and advanced aspects of cardiology. The only local text of its kind is richly referenced with Australian guidelines, while at the same time incorporates a global element by summarising up-to-date literature and landmark clinical trials from around the world.
