"Throughout this book, you will see many images and videos of what the heart prep at theUniversity of Minnesota’s Visible Heart Lab can produce. The results of Professor Iaizzo andhis research team exceeded my most optimistic projections of the value of the investment.The Visible Heart Lab brings a new depth of understanding to what actually is going on insidebeating animal and human hearts. It has helped to reshape how the industry designs andevaluates products. It changed how we made decisions on products to fund or not fund andimpacted how we ran our business. In advocating for the investment, Tim Laske, Mark Hjelle,and I made one mistake—we underestimated what Dr. Iaizzo and his team were capable ofaccomplishing. We would not make that mistake again. I do not believe failure is ever consideredas an option by his team."

"Cognitive Screening Instruments: A Practical Approach provides a practical and structured overview of some of the most commonly used and easily available cognitive screening instruments applicable in the outpatient clinic and bedside setting. Dementia and cognitive disorders are now recognised as an increasing public health problem, both in terms of patient numbers and cost, as populations age throughout the world. Despite this, many patients with dementia never receive a formal diagnosis, with implications for their appropriate care and management. Diagnostic tests which identify cases of dementia therefore have an important role. Expert authors from around the world equip the reader of Cognitive Screening Instruments: A Practical Approach with clear instructions on the usage of each screening instrument, its strengths and weaknesses, the time required for administration, and rules on scoring, such as how to correct for variations in the patient's age or education, and suggested cut-off scores. Cognitive Screening Instruments: A Practical Approach is a handy, illustrated guide and a valuable diagnostic aid for practitioners working closely with patients with dementia and mild cognitive impairment. This volume will be of use both to clinicians and to professionals in disciplines allied to medicine who are called upon to assess patients with possible cognitive disorders, including neurologists, old age psychiatrists, neuropsychologists, primary care physicians, dementia support workers, and members of memory assessment teams."

"Kateterisasi jantung adalah tindakan diagnostik dan intervensi terhadap penyakit jantung koroner. Nyeri punggung merupakan keluhan yang banyak diungkapkan oleh pasien yang menjalani kateterisasi jantung. Tujuan penelitian ini untuk mengetahui pengaruh mobilisasi dini terhadap nyeri punggung pada pasien post kateterisasi jantung. Desain penelitian adalah randomized controlled trials dengan single blind. Sebanyak 46 responden dibagi menjadi kelompok kontrol dan kelompok intervensi dengan metode randomisasi blok. Hasil penelitian menyimpulkan rerata nyeri punggung pada kelompok kontrol sesudah diberikan perlakuan lebih tinggi secara bermakna daripada kelompok intervensi (p value =0,01) dan selisih peningkatan nyeri punggung pada kelompok kontrol lebih tinggi daripada kelompok intervensi (p value =0,042). Kesimpulan dari penelitian ini adalah peningkatan nyeri punggung pada pasien yang diberikan mobilisasi dini lebih rendah dibandingkan peningkatan nyeri punggung pada pasien yang tidak diberikan mobilisasi dini. Rekomendasi untuk penelitian selanjutnya dapat ditambahkan intervensi massage punggung untuk menurunkan ketegangan otot punggung.

Cardiac catheterization is increasingly used in hospitals in Indonesia as diagnostic and interventional interventions against coronary heart disease. Back pain is a major complaint expressed by many patients who undergoing cardiac catheterization as prolonged bed rest period without any change in the position for more than 6 hours till tomorrow morning is commonly use. The purpose of this study were to determine the effect of early mobilization toward backpain in patients post cardiac catheterization.

The study design was a randomized controlled trials with singleblinded. The sample size was 46 respondents which divided to two groups: control group and intervention group by using block randomization method. The result of this study showed that mean backpain's scale in control group was significantly higher than the intervention group (pvalue = 0.01) after the interventios were given, and the difference in mean backpain’s scale in the control group is higher than the intervention group (p value = 0.042).

This study conclude that backpain’s scale elevated in patients whose given early mobilization is lower than the in backpain's scale in patients whose are not given early mobilization. Recommendations for further research is added another interventions to reduce tension of back muscles such as back massage."

"This Fifth Edition Resource, covers the entire scope of practice for cardiac rehabilitation and secondary prevention (CR/​SP) programs. This text was developed by the American Association of Cardiovascular and Pulmonary Rehabilitation (AACVPR) and parallels federal guidelines for cardiac rehabilitation programs. It contains information on promoting positive lifestyle behavior patterns, reducing risk factors for disease progression, and lessening the impact of cardiovascular disease on quality of life, morbidity, and mortality. The text has been updated and restructured, providing the most current models for designing and updating rehabilitation programs for patients and preventing second episodes. In addition to chapter revisions, there is new content on behavior modification, risk factors, and special populations. The chapter covering program administration has been completely rewritten to include new regulations and reimbursement standards as well as additional suggestions for new models for CR/​SP. The most recent Core Competencies for Cardiac Rehabilitation and Secondary Prevention Professionals and the Core Components of Cardiac Rehabilitation/​Secondary Prevention Programs have also been included in their entirety. There is strong evidence that participation in outpatient cardiac rehabilitation and secondary prevention programs decreases mortality and recurrent morbidity after a cardiac event. These guidelines offers procedures for providing patients with low-cost, high-quality programming, moving them toward personal responsibility for disease management and secondary prevention over a lifetime."

"Therapeutic hypothermia has emerged as a very important treatment option for patients with cardiac arrest as it provides significant protection from developing neurologic injury once the patient has been successfully resuscitated. Studies have demonstrated over 15% absolute risk reduction in death and neurologic injury using this therapy. Although hospitals and medical centers have become familiar with this important intervention it still remains greatly under utilized due to an experience and lack of resources to safely and effectively deploy such a program. The objective of this book is to educate and familiarize both providers and institutions as to how to develop and deploy and provide therapeutic hypothermia to their patients. The current knowledge for this is provided by speakers and national experts and also by literature review. There are several courses being provided on this as well throughout the US. These are good venues for people to come and see and get hands on experience, but there still needs to be a concrete book with references on how to go about getting this program started."
