Series Preface
This series is directed towards surgeons, physicians, and healthcare workers involved in the care of patients requiring cardiac, cardiothoracic, and cardiovascular surgery. The scientific developments in this field continue to be prodigious and are published in an ever-increasing journal base. We hope that the series will also provide an important resource to research workers in the quest to accelerate the translation of basic research findings into clinical study and practice. The knowledge base in our disciplines is changing rapidly and there is an important requirement to consolidate the wide-ranging information on which clinicians must base their practice. In the series, eminent experts, serving as editors or authors, offer their accounts of innovations within our areas of practice. In some, a thorough review of the available literature is undertaken to provide a balanced reference tool for investigators to pose future research questions and understand the studies that have been previously performed to best design subsequent studies and ana
