Yet Buckberg and his teams have pioneered additional advances that may save millions more - advances that are being ignored by the medical establishment.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e These include breakthroughs that reverse congestive heart failure, treat sudden death\/cardiac arrest with 80% survival (compared to the current rate of 15%), avoid heart muscle damage after an acute heart attack (that can lead to heart failure), and significantly improve effectiveness of pacemakers. Few families are untouched by one of these or the other conditions described in this book.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e A Distinguished Professor of Surgery at the David Geffen School of Medicine at UCLA, Dr. Buckberg's initial landmark research dramatically transformed high-risk open heart operations into the routine procedures they are today. Over 85% of cardiac surgeons in the United States use his techniques. So why haven't his team's subsequent groundbreaking discoveries yet been adopted as standard practice?\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e The personal story of a relentless quest to solve problems long thought insurmountable, Solving the Mysteries of Heart Disease tells of triumphs over formidable odds and initial failures. It provides a deep understanding of how the heart works and what happens when things go wrong. At the same time, Buckberg exposes why the medical field has been too slow to adopt treatments proven effective in patients in the U.S. and internationally - remedies that could create a revolution in healthcare.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Gerald D.

His early landmark discovery of blood cardioplegia has dramatically increased the safety of open heart operations. It is used by over 85% of United States surgeons and by 75% of surgeons worldwide. Dr. Buckberg's teams have developed new treatments for acute myocardial infarction (heart attacks) that restore healthy function and avoid the development of congestive heart failure. He later formed an international team of leading surgeons and cardiologists to successfully restore healthy function to congestive heart failure patients. Further breakthroughs by Dr. Buckberg were made in treating sudden death syndrome (cardiac arrest), avoiding heart muscle damage in blue babies, remedying disorders relating to the septum, and improving pacemaker effectiveness. He also formulated a new structural understanding of why the heart beats normally, and yet fails during disease.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eThis title is not returnable\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Health House Press","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":40597305950323,"sku":"9.781E+12","price":53.68,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/9255\/0515\/products\/img_f3ae3489-f01f-4c05-ad5a-1f90b27db879.jpg?v=1669128305","url":"https:\/\/bookstorenmore.com\/products\/solving-the-mysteries-of-heart-disease-life-saving-answers-ignored-by-the-medical-establishment-9780999847206","provider":"Bookstore N More","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
