Hemodynamic Waveform Analysis
A must for learning hemodynamic waveform interpretation, this excellent text and reference demonstrates the necessity of interpreting waveforms in critical care situations. Step-by-step directions are provided for identifying normal waveforms as well as abnormalities and variations. Technical considerations in hemodynamic waveform monitoring are provided. Integration of hemodynamic waveform values with other hemodynamic data provide the clinician with practical skills to apply in clinical scenarios. These skills are tested in the new clinical application section of the text which stresses the large number of practice waveforms.

Excellent, clear, and in-depth analysis of waveforms.
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 25 years ago
This is the best atrial, ventricular, arterial, venous, and pulmonary waveform analysis material that I have read. The material is presented in a clear and logical fashion with instructions for proper interpretation of said waveforms and how to correlate with the ECG. Normal as well as abnormal waveforms are presented. The sample waveform tracings are top-notch and abundent. Application of waveform analysis to the clinical situation is also dealt with. Examples of the material covered: how to read a waves, c waves, v waves; where the edv is acurately measured; respiratory influence on waveforms (mechanical vs spontaneous); ECG correlation to all waveforms; valvular disturbences and how they reflect on the waveforms; practice waveforms; technical considerations; clinical application and treatment of waveforms; and IABP. I highly recommend this to any intensive care clinicians. This is also an excellent resource for educators (nursing or physician) as well as for those who work in the cath lab. James Saine RN CCRN
