PFO Closure for Stroke, Myocardial Infarction, Peripheral Embolism, Migraine, and Hypoxemia

PFO Closure for Stroke, Myocardial Infarction, Peripheral Embolism, Migraine, and Hypoxemia covers the association between Patent Foramen Ovale (PFO) and numerous clinical conditions. The book provides a background on the topic of PFO, including embryology, anatomy and physiology, fully examines the diagnosis and imaging assessment of PFO, and discusses the data linking PFO to various clinical conditions, including stroke, myocardial infarction, peripheral embolism, migraine, hypoxemia, decompression sickness, Raynaud's phenomenon and vasospasm. In addition, the book includes perspectives that focus on future outlooks on PFO closure and where the field is headed. User will find this to be a perfect reference book for cardiology researchers, cardiologists, interventional cardiologists, general practitioners and medical professionals that are interested in current safety and technical aspects in the field. Explains the association between PFO and related clinical conditions, including stroke, myocardial infarction, peripheral embolism, migraine and hypoxemiaProvides an in-depth analysis of the evidence behind PFO closure for various clinical conditionsExpounds on the technical aspects of PFO closure, including differences between devices and techniques for closureOffers future outlooks on PFO closure and where the future is headed in terms of closure indications INDICE: Part I: Introduction 1.
