This book provides a unique overview of quality of life (QoL) in cardiovascular medicine. It provides much information on QoL: in hypertension; in coronary artery disease and its treatment (with drugs and interventions); in heart failure; if there are disturbances in cardiac rhythm; if implantable cardiac devices are employed; in post-stroke patients. Thus, the book is useful for the practising physician, cardiac surgeon or stroke physician. Moreover, it is an invaluable resource for anyone considering research in these areas. In addition, the Appendix provides appreciable detail and full citations on generic and disease-specific QoL questionnaires.
