With some help from fellow cardiologists, Steinberg and Cannon systematically summarize major trial data and place the information from these annotated studies in context. They present the results of major randomized trials in six major topics areas, including the design, study population, treatment regimen, and results. The areas are preventive cardiology, coronary revascularization and percutaneous procedures, unstable angina/non-ST elevation myocardial infarction, ST elevation myocardial infarction, heart failure, and arrhythmias. For this edition they have dropped some older trials to limit the length of the book, and have lengthened the chapter overviews preceding the annotated references with more attention to relevant ACC/AHA practice guidelines.
