Summary Table of Contents

McGraw-Hill has the leading series of monographs in physiology (i.e. Pulmonary Physiology, Cardiovascular Physiology, Renal Physiology, and Endocrine Physiology). But the series has suffered because the books have not been released simultaneously and do not have a uniform format and design.Our plan is to make this leading series of monographs even stronger by bringing them into the Lange family and branding them as the Lange physiology monograph series.The fifth edition of Cardiovascular Physiology, along with the other books in the series, wil... MOREl be completely redesigned. Unique features such as the chapter objectives and student study questions will be highlighted. But most importantly, Cardiovascular Physiology will be published in conjunction with the other titles in the physiology monograph series.Positioning Statement:Cardiovascular Physiology is a careful overview focused on the key concepts and overall functional properties of the cardiovascular system.Book Description:Cardiovascular Physiology is a concise, introductory/review text that provides a thorough grounding in the aspects of cardiovascular physiology, crucial to understanding clinical medicine. The text stresses comprehension of fundamental concepts over memorization, and reinforces key points by applying basic physiologic principles to various clinical situations involving the cardiovascular system. Each chapter includes detailed explanations of physiologic mechanisms and their role in different pathologic states. Study questions and answers are included.Revision Highlights:* New Appendix with normal values for major cardiovascular variables (e.g., arterial and venous pressures, organ blood flow rates, cardiac pressures and volumes in various stages of the cardiac cycle, resting and maximum heart rates, etc.)* Updated sections on muscle contractile processes and membrane potential* New interior design and new cover* Art improved throughout* Updated study questions and case presentationsKey Features:* Clearly stated learning objectives inform the reader of the goals of each chapter* Study questions with annotated answers elucidate even the most difficult topics* Abundant use of diagrams, tables, and illustrations summarize and reinforce comprehension of the material* Suggested readings for expanded study* Concise and well-written; perfect review for the USMLE Step 1

Provides students with a thorough grounding in those aspects of cardiovascular physiology that are crucial to understanding clinical medicine. A perfect review for the USMLE Step 1, the Fifth Edition features updated sections on muscle contractile processes and membrane potential, a new appendix with normal values for major cardiovascular variables, and updated study questions and case presentations.
