Description

Book Synopsis
This book addresses consequences on the cardiovascular system that arise from iatrogenesis— the occurrence of untoward effects resulting from actions of health care providers, including medical errors, medical malpractice, practicing beyond one’s expertise, adverse effects of medication, unnecessary treatment, inappropriate screenings, and surgical errors.
