Description:
This book is spiral bound - and it is ALL in COLOR! It contains 116 pages (pocket-size = 5.5" x 4.25" ). * Rapid-Find Contents is on the inside-front-cover - and Summary ECG Crib Sheet on the back-inside-cover. * NO prior knowledge of ECGs is required to read this book. I assume you have never seen an ECG before - or have had no more than minimal exposure. For non-medical providers who read this book - this book may be a beginning AND end point that should answer your questions about what an ECG is - Why and When this test is ordered - and What can be learned from interpreting the tracing in light of the clinical situation. * For OTHERS (ie, students in any health care profession and medical providers new to ECG interpretation) - this book is an excellent Starting Point (after completion the reader who wants to learn more will be more than ready for my ECG-2014-Expanded PB or ePub products). * Included in the content of this book is an introduction to the history of the ECG - the basic components of ECG interpretation, including assessment of Rate - Rhythm - Intervals - Axis - Hypertrophy and - Ischemia/Infarction (= QRST Changes) - and presentation of a Systematic Approach to interpretation that provides a checklist to the essential components that should be assessed by all medical providers, whatever their level of training.
