Summary

The CCU Handbook is a practical reference for clinical work in the coronary care unit (CCU, also cardiac care unit), edited by Guo Hangyuan, a cardiovascular specialist at Zhejiang University, with Ma Changsheng, Li Yigang, and others contributing. It was published by Zhejiang University Press in 2008. The book centers on the CCU, a relatively self-contained diagnostic and treatment unit within cardiology that is highly dependent on information systems and equipment. The editors note that the CCU's scope has expanded from the monitoring and treatment of coronary heart disease and acute myocardial infarction (AMI) alone to admitting patients with all kinds of acute and critical cardiovascular conditions; the coronary care unit has in effect become a "cardiac intensive care unit," placing higher demands on environmental support, staff professionalism, and standardized diagnostic and treatment protocols. In structure, the book addresses five main areas: environmental support and ward management in the CCU; common clinical problems in the CCU; commonly used cardiovascular drugs in the CCU; commonly used procedural techniques in the CCU; and the monitoring and treatment of common diseases admitted to the CCU. It also discusses practical questions such as how to use CCU resources rationally, how to train qualified CCU staff, how to maintain a quiet and comfortable ward environment, how to conduct patient education and communication, how to manage and make good use of monitoring and resuscitation equipment, and how to interpret various monitoring parameters and information, and offers countermeasures for staff management and psychological adjustment under high-pressure conditions. At roughly 210,000 characters, the book is compact and positioned as a clinical reference combining advanced content with practicality, suitable for CCU and ICU staff, cardiologists, graduate students, and medical students.

Editor's review

国内关于 CCU 规范化诊疗的专著一向不多,这本《CCU手册》补上的正是“怎么在病房里把事情做对”这一环。它由郭航远主编,马长生、李毅刚等心血管领域知名专家参与编写,由浙江大学出版社于 2008 年出版。 本书最大的特点是“以病房为中心”而不是“以疾病为中心”。开篇先讲 CCU 的目的任务、环境配置、护士角色、收治与转出标准、诊疗程序和患者转送,把这一相对独立单元的运作逻辑交代清楚;接着把临床最常撞见的问题按症状和场景排开——胸痛、呼吸困难、晕厥、水肿、发热、低血压、电解质紊乱、跌倒、便秘,这些正是值班时最先被叫到的情形。药物部分按心血管急救药、洋地黄、利尿剂、硝酸酯、抗心律失常药、β 阻滞剂、钙拮抗剂、ACEI/ARB、抗血栓药分类梳理,便于床旁查阅。 全书约 21 万字、251 页,大 32 开平装,随身携带不累赘,写法简洁、条目清晰,是典型的“手册体”。需要注意的是,本书出版于 2008 年,此后的指南、药物与器械进展(如新型抗栓药、临时机械循环支持等)未及纳入,读者应结合最新指南使用。

Who it's for

A good fit for

  • CCU、ICU 的医师与护理人员,尤其是新入科、需快速上手者
  • 心内科住院医师、规培生和进修医师,作为值班床旁查阅手册
  • 急诊科、内科轮转医师,用于识别与处理心血管急重症
  • 心血管专业研究生和医学生,作为 CCU 临床实践的入门读物
  • 负责 CCU 病房管理与护理培训的科室负责人

Not a good fit for

  • 希望获取 2008 年以后最新指南、最新药物与器械进展的读者
  • 非医学背景的普通读者,书中大量专科术语与操作难以独立理解
  • 把本书当作患者或家属科普读物使用的人群

Reading tips

  1. 先通读第一章,建立 CCU 环境、收治标准与诊疗流程的整体框架,再按需查阅其他章节。
  2. 按“症状—药物—操作—疾病”四个板块分别建立床旁速查索引,值班时快速定位。
  3. 阅读疾病章节时对照现行最新指南,标注书中已过时的药物与阈值。
  4. 结合本科室的实际设备与流程做批注,把书中规范转化为可执行的科室常规。

About the publisher

Zhejiang University Press China · Founded in 1984

Since its founding in 1984, Zhejiang University Press has published across fields ranging from science, engineering, agriculture and medicine to the humanities and social sciences, covering both academic monographs and general-interest titles. Judging from the 211 books in our catalog, its strengths lie in management, finance, social sciences, world history and biography. Representative works include Wu Xiaobo's financial titles such as "Day by Day" and "Tencent Biography", translations in the social sciences such as Chizuko Ueno's "Patriarchy and Capitalism", and biographical and historical works such as "Alexander Hamilton" and "The History of the Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire". Its authors include Chinese and international scholars and writers such as Wu Xiaobo, Chizuko Ueno and Ron Chernow. On the evidence of the catalog, the press combines academic translation with accessible finance and history writing, giving equal weight to specialist publishing and popular reading. It should be noted that public information on the press's full publishing structure and characteristics is limited.

About the author

马长生 Author

Ma Changsheng is an author in the field of medicine. Publicly available information about him is limited: the only confirmed representative work is Atrial Fibrillation (2017 edition), and one of his works is held in the collection. Based on what is available, his writing addresses clinical medicine and focuses on atrial fibrillation, a specific cardiac arrhythmia, making the book a specialized medical reference. Works of this kind generally integrate disease mechanisms, diagnostic reasoning, and treatment strategies, combining theoretical review with practical guidance, and are therefore of reference value to readers engaged in cardiovascular diagnosis and treatment. In the absence of reliable records concerning his life, education, or positions, no inferences are made here; his writing style and scholarly influence can only be understood from the subject matter and the general classification of medicine to which this single work belongs, namely an approach aimed at professional readers and centered on clinical problems.

李毅刚 Author

Li Yigang — publicly available information is limited; the only known work by this author is a medical title, Exploration and Practice in the Standardized Prevention and Treatment of Atrial Fibrillation in Shanghai. Judging from the title and its common classification under medicine, the book focuses on the standardized prevention and treatment of atrial fibrillation, a common cardiac arrhythmia, and likely presents clinical practice and prevention experience from Shanghai, giving it a certain regional focus and practical reference value. The choice of this subject suggests the author's attention to the diagnosis, treatment, and management of atrial fibrillation. As no reliable details about the author's life, identity, or institutional affiliation could be confirmed, this introduction makes no speculation and comments only on the subject matter of the work. Readers seeking background on the author may consult the book's preface, author page, or related publication information for more reliable details.
