The objective of this book is to illustrate in specific detail how cardiovascular mechanics stands as a common pillar supporting such different clinical successes as drugs for high blood pressure, prosthetic heart valves and coronary artery bypass grafting, among others. This information is coupled with a comprehensive treatment of the overarchng principles and theories that are behind many applications. Issues such as ischemia, heart failure and atrial fibrillation, as well as angioplasty and revascularization with be investigated through the lens of the mechanical framework.
