The Nuts and Bolts of ICD Therapy by Tom Kenny

The Nuts and Bolts of ICD Therapy by Tom Kenny

The number of ICD patients is increasing sharply, yet the number of electrophysiologists-physicians who specialize in the electrical system of the heart-is not increasing as dramatically. Written for non-cardiologists, this book emphasizes real-life clinical practice and practical tips, including illustrations from actual clinical settings.

"The terminology used throughout the book is easily understood and this is explained further with the helpful extensive glossary"

"For the cardiac practitioner involved in the mechanics of ICD therapy and the implications for patients it is of clear relevance to practice"

British Journal of Cardiac Nursing

Thomas P. Kenny is the primary author of the book, he is the Vice President of Education for St. Jude Medical, a leader in cardiac rhythm management devices. As such, he has developed and collaborated on a wide variety of training and educational materials for physicians, fellows, physician assistants, nurses, and technicians. He is an outstanding presenter with more than 15 years' experience in the electrical management of cardiac rhythms and a thorough understanding of the industry, the key opinion leaders, and its developments over time. He will provide the structure and content of the material.

Mr. Kenny has experienced both sides of training for cardiac rhythm management devices: in his early years, in clinical practice, caring for such patients, and today, as an executive charged with training the many people who use St. Jude Medical products.
