Rapid progress in the field of cardiology calls for an almost continuous update on latest developments. In particular, this is the case with respect to indications for diagnostic and therapeutic interventions. The present contribution deals with some topics in this area. The first article elaborates on the theme of which diagnostic test is indicated, under what circumstances, and for which patient. Technical improvements in the surgical practice of coronary revascularization are discussed in the light of better therapeutic results. Unsolved questions of percutaneous dilatation (PTCA) are critically reviewed in a third article. Current problems in surgical treatment of valvular heart disease are dealt with in the fourth report. Finally, the enormous progress in pacemaker medicine that has accumulated since the world-wide first implant in 1959 by A. Senning is summarized in the last contribution. |
