The fifth edition of the Handbook of Patient
Care in Vascular Diseases inaugurates the transition from one generation
of authors (Hallett, Brewster, and Darling) to the next (Rasmussen, Clouse, and
Tonnessen). The change in authors recognizes the need to pass the torch to the
younger men and women who will lead the care of vascular patients into the
future.
The first edition of the Handbook dates
to 1982, when open surgery was well established but endovascular therapy was
relatively new. Basic principles of care remain the same. However, new
endovascular options, proliferating cardiovascular medicines, and developing
cell therapies required a reorganization of the previous Handbook.
The central purpose of the original Handbook remains unchanged: To serve as a primer of
principles that optimize patient outcomes. The authors have revised every
chapter and added the latest in diagnostic and treatment approaches. They
provide concise and clear suggestions to every member of the care team. Both
novices and more experienced practitioners, including cardiologists,
radiologists, and surgeons, will find some thing in these pages to help them in
their daily work.
