Download or read book Can You Die of a Broken Heart written by Dr. Nikki Stamp and published by Murdoch Books. This book was released on 2020-03-03 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 2016, beloved actress Carrie Fisher passed away, leaving hordes of Star Wars fans adrift. The tragedy was that a day after we lost the incredible Fisher, her mother Debbie Reynolds died of a stroke. Some say that desperately bereft without her daughter, Reynolds died of a broken heart. Whilst in times of great emotion we often feel that our heart has shattered into a million pieces, is it really true? Can you really die of a broken heart? Written by one of the eleven female heart surgeons in the whole of Australia, Dr Nikki Stamp’s Can You Die of a Broken Heart? is not a whimsical, philosophical assessment of the heart, nor is it a book that will provide you with a list of things you must do to be healthy or a plan to follow, set out day by day. Instead, Nikki aims to instill her love and passion for the heart into every reader: “I want to show you how incredible our hearts truly are. We will explore how they work, how they get sick and what we know about looking after them. I want you to walk away just as enthralled by this pump that sits in the centre of our chests that keeps us alive. I want you to be so armed with information for your new found enthrallment with your heart that you will want to care for it every day.” Broken down into fourteen chapters, Can You Die of a Broken Heart? explains how stress, food, fat, exercise, depression, sleep, love, gender, nutrition and genetics can all play a part when it comes to heart health so you can do your best to understand the importance of keeping your body and mind as healthy as possible. Did you know that running is the best form of exercise to keep your heart healthy? That love can help you to recover from heart disease much more effectively than those without, and that grief can literally make your heart stop? Did you know that those suffering from depression are 1.6 times more likely to suffer heart problems than those who have never had depression? And that men and women have different symptoms when they have a heart attack (it’s not just the Hollywood clutching of the chest!)? Packed full of interesting anecdotes of the heart health of Nikki’s patients, Nikki explains what heart failure is, how it affects our bodies both emotionally and physically, and why it is imperative that we have a greater understanding of the importance of the heart and why we should keep as healthy as possible. Nikki highlights that in the past, heart attacks have only been explored in relation to men. Did you know women are more likely to die from heart disease than they are cancer? And whilst men who suffer from heart attacks are most likely to call an ambulance, women call their mothers, believing their symptoms of nausea, headaches and back ache are just signs of being run down. Can You Die of a Broken Heart? is a fascinating insight into the workings of the heart and how emotions and lifestyle affect every beat, from a rare female voice in what is undeniably a male-dominated profession.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Congenital Heart Diseases are of the utmost importance in modern cardiology. This is a book that deals with essential matters which are developed by experienced researchers in their respective fields. An updated approach to these issues was largely sought after. The authors share their own papers and experience with the enthusiastic professionals reading their work all throughout the chapters in an easy-to-read format. Modern medical practice demands continuous research on specific topics. Thereafter, this book is devoted to the development of the coronary arteries facing the fact that coronary artery disease is the most common cause of mortality in the developed world. The role of the estrogen receptor and transforming growth factors in coronary intimal hyperplasia and thorough descriptions of new diagnostic techniques in congenital heart diseases are also displayed (severe congenital heart defects are generally diagnosed during pregnancy or soon after birth while less severe defects often are not diagnosed until children are older). Accordingly, complex malformations of the heart, fetal arrhythmias and pulmonary hypertension are also included. In as much as other specific subjects are relevant as well, topics like an etiological overview of intrauterine ductus arteriosus constriction, restrictive cardiomyopathy in children or hybrid procedures for congenital heart disease, namely palliation of hypoplastic left heart syndrome, closure of muscular ventricular septal defect and stenting of branch pulmonary arteries are developed as well. Last but not least, the long-term outcomes of congenital heart diseases, including medical, interventional and emergency treatments, are examined.
