This specialist handbook is a practical, comprehensive, and concise training guide on how to implant, follow-up, and troubleshoot pacemakers and ICDs, fully updated with new technologies and the latest international guidelines.
Jonathan Timperley is a Consultant Cardiologist at Northampton General Hospital, and an Honorary Consultant Cardiologist at the John Radcliffe Hospital, Oxford. He is highly experienced in managing a range of cardiac diseases, including coronary artery disease, heart failure, arrhythmia, and cardiomyopathy. Dr Timperley has a specific interest in aviation medicine. After studying medicine at the University Leeds, he underwent specialist training at the Royal Brompton Hospital in London, and was awarded his research Doctorate in Medicine with commendation from the University of Leeds in 2007. Dr Timperley became a consultant in the Defence Medical Services and was deployed to Afghanistan and Iraq. He is an expert in implantation of pacemakers, implantable cardioverter degibrillators, and biventricular devices for the treatment of heart failure. Paul Leeson is Professor of Cardiovascular Medicine at the University of Oxford, Research Fellow at Wolfson College and Head of the Oxford Cardiovascular Clinical Research Facility. He is also a Consultant Cardiologist at the John Radcliffe Hospital, where he provides expertise in Cardiovascular Imaging, General Cardiology and Cardiovascular Prevention through the Oxford Specialist Hypertension Clinic. He heads the Preventive Cardiology Research Group, which aims to improve how we identify and prevent heart disease in young people. The group uses cardiac and vascular imaging, in conjunction with laboratory-based studies, to characterise early patho-physiological changes that predispose to cardiovascular diseases, such as, hypertension. There is a particular focus on the long term impact of pregnancy complications, such as preeclampsia and preterm birth, on both mother and child. Andrew Mitchell is a Consultant Cardiologist at Jersey General Hospital and an Honorary Cardiologist at the John Radcliffe Hospital in Oxford. He studied medicine at the University of Southampton, and is a member of the British Cardiovascular Society, American College of Cardiology, and European Society of Cardiology amongst others. His specialist interests include advanced echocardiography and the non-drug therapy for arrhythmia management. He has published over 130 papers and abstracts on aspects of clinical cardiology. In 2016 he was a finalist for the Cardiology Team of the Year in the British Medical Journal awards. Timothy Betts is a Consultant Cardiologist and the Clinical Lead for Cardiac Electrophysiology at Oxford University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust. His research interests include emerging technologies for atrial fibrillation and other arrythymias, and in cardiac resynchronisation therapy to treat heart failure, including the electrophysiological and functional benefits of LB endocardial pacing. He trained in Cardiology internationally, and is a member of the British Heart Rhythm Society and the British Cardiovascular Society.

Review from previous edition ...designed for electrophysiologists,
but will reach a wider readership as it informs beyond guiding the
specialist...buy it, enjoy it and be guided well by it.
*British Journal of Hospital Medicine*
Anyone who has ever clutched a copy of an Oxford Handbook will
immediately recognise this new publication from the Oxford
University Press. The family DNA is there for all to see, from its
pocket size to the durable plastic cover; from the indexing to the
built in bookmarks...its bigest virtue is the fact that everything
is written as bullet points or short concise paragraphs. And in
true Oxford Handbook fashion, each pair of adjoining pages covers
one topic and one topic only. This allows very thorough indexing,
so finding what information you want is quick and easy. The quality
of the information is also very comprehensive and virtually all
topics are covered.
