Fetal Cardiology: A Practical Approach to Diagnosis and Management

Editat de John Simpson, Vita Zidere, Owen I. Miller

en Limba Engleză Hardback – 6 noi 2018

Înțelegerea patologiei cardiace prenatale necesită o precizie diagnostică riguroasă, iar în Fetal Cardiology găsim o resursă clinică ce prioritizează componenta vizuală prin imagini ecografice de înaltă rezoluție și secvențe video care ilustrează atât cordul normal, cât și pe cel patologic. Notăm cu interes modul în care editorii John Simpson, Vita Zidere și Owen I. Miller transcend examinarea standard de screening, oferind perspective extinse asupra cordului fetal și utilizării tehnicilor Doppler pentru evaluarea funcției hemodinamice. Structura volumului este organizată logic, debutând cu organizarea screeningului și progresând spre anomalii complexe ale arcului aortic, venelor sistemice și pulmonare, culminând cu capitole esențiale despre genetica defectelor cardiace congenitale. Credem că valoarea adăugată a acestei prime ediții din 2018 rezidă în abordarea multidisciplinară: nu se limitează la diagnostic, ci include protocoale de management obstetric și cardiac postnatal. Acolo unde A Practical Guide to Fetal Echocardiography de Alfred Z. Abuhamad MD servește ca un text de referință premiat pentru imagistică generală, Fetal Cardiology aprofundează aspectele pragmatice ale prognosticului și integrarea noilor modalități de investigație, cum este RMN-ul cardiac fetal. De asemenea, spre deosebire de Fetal Heart: Screening, Diagnosis & Intervention, care se concentrează masiv pe screeningul de trimestrul I și II, lucrarea de față extinde analiza către consilierea parentală și impactul diagnosticului prenatal asupra rezultatelor clinice pe termen lung.

De ce să citești această carte

Recomandăm această lucrare cardiologilor, specialiștilor în medicină fetală și sonografiștilor care doresc să stăpânească tehnicile avansate de ecocardiografie. Cititorul câștigă un ghid practic pentru interpretarea aritmiilor și a variantelor anatomice complexe, beneficiind de expertiza unor clinicieni care fac legătura directă între diagnosticul in utero și îngrijirea postnatală, esențială pentru îmbunătățirea ratei de supraviețuire în bolile cardiace congenitale.

Despre autor

John Simpson este un reputat cardiolog pediatru, activând ca profesor și consultant în cadrul Guy's and St Thomas' NHS Foundation Trust din Londra. Deși baza de date indică și un autor omonim specializat în lexicografie, acest volum este produsul expertizei medicale a Dr. Simpson în domeniul ecocardiografiei fetale. Cariera sa este marcată de contribuții semnificative în diagnosticul prenatal al malformațiilor cardiace, fiind un promotor al standardelor internaționale de screening. În colaborare cu Vita Zidere și Owen I. Miller, acesta a consolidat în Fetal Cardiology decenii de experiență clinică dedicată managementului anomaliilor congenitale.

Descriere scurtă

This practical book describes a systematic approach to the ultrasound examination of the fetal heart based on accepted screening recommendations. The written content is enhanced by images and videos of both normal and abnormal sonographic findings.
Fetal Cardiology: A Practical Approach to Diagnosis and Management goes further than simply describing core screening views. It includes extended views of the fetal heart, the use of Doppler techniques and assessment of fetal cardiac function. “Variants” which can be encountered in practice are described as well as the features of the major groups of cardiac abnormalities and fetal arrhythmias. Because the authors include experienced fetal and paediatric cardiologists, the focus is not only on diagnostic features but also the approach to postnatal care and prognosis. This content is enhanced by inclusion of chapters relating to associated fetal abnormalities, the genetics of congenital heart disease and new imaging modalities such as MRI of the fetal heart.
The book equips all those using ultrasound to image the fetus with a clear concise reference to meet the challenge of new guidelines and to expand their knowledge of complementary echocardiographic techniques and management. It details why prenatal recognition of congenital heart disease is being prioritised to allow for parental choice, recognition of associated abnormalities and improvement of postnatal outcome. As such, this book will be important for all professionals, whether they be a cardiologist, fetal medicine specialist, sonographer or midwife.

Recenzii

“It is a pleasure to see another book dedicated to the fetal heart. … It will be a good addition to the libraries of experts in fetal medicine as it offers quick access to relevant information to help understanding of fetal congenital heart disease. It will also be of value to paediatric cardiologists, experienced sonographers and other professionals who wish to extend their knowledge on how to diagnose and manage prenatally detected cardiac abnormalities.” (Julene S Carvalho, RAD Magazine, January, 2020)
“This presents a practical approach to the diagnosis and management of fetal cardiac diseases. … This is a good supplement to the other books available on fetal cardiology and echocardiographic examination. The focus is predominantly on echocardiographic examinations,which this book does well.” (Aashish Gupta, Doody's Book Reviews, March, 15 , 2019)
