Investigative Electrocardiography in Epidemiological Studies and Clinical Trials
There is a lack of treatises dealing with investigative electrocardiographic research. Investigative Electrocardiography in Epidemiological Studies and Clinical Trials provides background information on procedures, epidemiological aspects, problem areas, mortality and morbidity risk. These topics are of particular interest for investigators in ECG research and clinical trials. This monograph is specialized beyond the scope of ordinary clinical textbooks of electrocardiography that have traditionally flooded the market.
