Established since 1968 as a classic pediatric cardiology text, this two-volume work is now in its Seventh Edition. Leading international experts describe state-of-the-art diagnostic and interventional techniques for young patients with congenital and acquired heart diseases and for adult survivors of congenital heart disease. This edition's section on pediatric cardiac intensive care has new chapters on interventricular and cardiopulmonary interactions and on the extreme premature, premature, and normal newborn. A section From the Gene to the Neonate provides in-depth coverage of genetics, fetal echocardiography, and fetal cardiology. An extensive section focuses on adult survivors of congenital heart disease. A companion Website will include the fully searchable online text.
