Peripheral Vascular Disease: A Clinical Approach

Description:

Part of the new Clinical Approach series—which focuses on key topics in cardiology—this pragmatic, comprehensive guide is intended for residents, practitioners, advanced practice nurses, and physician assistants, and covers arterial, venous, and lymphatic diseases.
