{ "item_title" : "Handbook of Congenital Heart Disease", "item_author" : [" Velma R. Morgan "], "item_description" : "Congenital heart disease remains one of the most important and complex areas of cardiovascular medicine, requiring a clear understanding of anatomy, physiology, genetics, diagnosis, intervention, and lifelong patient care. Whether encountered in the prenatal period, infancy, childhood, adolescence, or adulthood, congenital cardiac conditions present unique clinical challenges that demand a strong foundation in both science and practice.Handbook of Congenital Heart Disease provides a structured and comprehensive guide to the principles and clinical management of congenital heart disease across the entire lifespan. Beginning with normal cardiovascular development, embryology, fetal circulation, and congenital cardiac anatomy, the book builds a practical framework for understanding how congenital defects arise, how they affect cardiovascular function, and how they are identified and managed in modern clinical practice.Readers are guided through prenatal screening, fetal echocardiography, newborn evaluation, diagnostic imaging, cardiac catheterization, hemodynamic assessment, and contemporary treatment strategies.What You'll LearnFoundations of normal heart anatomy and cardiovascular physiologyCardiac embryology and developmental mechanisms underlying congenital defectsFetal circulation and cardiovascular transition at birthGenetics, inheritance patterns, and genomic medicine in congenital heart diseasePrenatal screening, fetal imaging, and prenatal counseling principlesClinical presentation of congenital heart disease across different age groupsCardiovascular examination and diagnostic evaluation techniquesInterpretation of electrocardiography, echocardiography, CT, MRI, and catheterization findingsAssessment and management of septal defects and left-to-right shuntsUnderstanding obstructive, valvular, cyanotic, and complex congenital lesionsPrinciples of medical therapy, catheter-based intervention, and surgical managementAdult congenital heart disease surveillance and long-term carePregnancy considerations in patients with congenital heart diseaseLifelong monitoring, complications, rehabilitation, and quality-of-life issuesEmerging developments in precision medicine, telehealth, wearable technology, and congenital heart disease researchInside This Handbook1.
