Handbook of Cardiac Electrophysiology is a practical, user-friendly guide to the theory and practice of a routinely used technique. It provides a thorough grounding in the equipment, procedures, and clinical findings which clinicians need to know.

The handbook is divided into two sections, which present:

• a review of the main kinds of arrhythmia, with illustrations of typical ECG findings supported where appropriate by correlative imaging
• the principal diagnostic and therapeutic procedures, including implantation of pacemakers, resynchronization therapy, use and placement of catheters and ablation techniques

Providing practical guidance on clinical applications, and illustrated with numerous graphics, checklists and flowcharts to enable readers to locate information quickly and easily, Handbook of Cardiac Electrophysiology is an accessible resource covering a widespread, but complex technology.
