Overview

Clinical Scenarios in Adult Cardiac Surgery bridges the gap between conventional casebooks and real-world surgical decision-making to offer a realistic picture of the challenges faced by cardiac surgeons. Formatted to emphasize strategic thinking and problem-solving when dealing with more complex patients, it will help enhance decision-making abilities with thought-provoking cases and explanations of surgical concepts in routine practice. Surgeons are increasingly required to manage more high-risk patients, navigate unpredictable intraoperative findings, and keep abreast of the evolving evidence, and adult cardiac surgical patients often pose challenges. With a focus on scenarios that are not straightforward, this book encourages critical analysis and multifaceted approaches to patient management, to help prepare cardiac surgeons for real-world practice and aid residents when preparing for their exit examinations. Addressing both the core concepts and complex situations that demand higher-order thinking, Clinical Scenarios in Adult Cardiac Surgery is an effective resource for cardiac surgeons and those training in adult cardiac surgery, as well as cardiologists and nurses involved in the care of cardiac surgical patients.
