Quick and convenient, this resource provides a clinical overview of a wide variety of diseases and disorders that affect the cardiovascular

diagnostic tests and laboratory information and findings with clinically important medical and surgical interventions and pharmacologic
therapies – then applies the material to physical therapy evaluation and treatment. This edition adds an introductory chapter on the
