Description
ECGs continue to play an essential role in the diagnosis of many cardiac conditions and even in various medical problems. But many physicians no longer feel comfortable reading ECGs because they have not developed the necessary skills or an effective approach. Few are trained in looking carefully at the entire ECG, focusing on identification of important waveforms.
The ECG Tutorial Series teaches the art of ECG analysis by careful analysis of specific examples taken from real clinical cases. Each ECG is accompanied by a discussion of important diagnostic findings that emphasizes essential electrophysiologic mechanisms and clinical management decisions. The series will prepare physicians and students for the spectrum of routine to challenging ECGs they will encounter in their own clinical practice.
