One of the most time-consuming tasks in clinical medicine is seeking the opinions of specialist colleagues. There is a pressure not only to make referrals appropriate but also to summarize the case in the language of the specialist. This book explains basic physiologic and pathophysiologic mechanisms of cardiovascular disease in a straightforward manner, gives guidelines as to when referral is appropriate, and, uniquely, explains what the specialist is likely to do. It is ideal for any hospital doctor, generalist, or even senior medical student who may need a cardiology opinion, or for that ma.

The newest edition to BarCharts' line of medical guides is an essential companion for anyone studying EKGs/ECGs or working in the medical field. This guide features an introduction to EKGs and how they work and also includes detailed sections covering the main types of arrhythmias, such as sinus rhythms, atrial rhythms, junctional rhythms, ventricular rhythms, and heart blocks. Helpful illustrations, along with the rate, rhythm, P wave, PR interval, and QRS complex, of each rhythm covered are also included to help with identification.

EKG or ECG are both acronyms of the word electrocardiogram. An electrocardiogram records the electronic impulses in your heart. This way you can be checked for a murmur, possible heart attack or stroke. Viewing and studying a chart that shows all the different readings for each one can give you an idea of what the electronic impulses are like for each. A chart will even show the impulses in a normal heart. Learning about what all an EKG does is important in the health field.

Anxious for your first ECG? Know everything that you need to know in this quick study guide. Whether you are the patient or the professional conducting the test, this guide will serve as a valuable resource for you. It lists down the essentials of reading the results, what factors to watch out for, and what the different monitors mean and so on. Buy a copy now.

This book is an indispensable companion to Stein's Rapid Analysis of Arrhythmias, and it's useful for everyone learning the fundamentals of 12 lead ECG interpretation. In a self-assessment format, the manual offers a step-by-step approach beginning with basic concepts and going on to the analysis of normal and abnormal states. Many new electrocardiograms as well as additional information on Holter monitoring, stress testing, and pacing are contained in this Third Edition.

Geared to LPNs/LVNs, this quick-reference pocket book provides an easy-to-understand guide to ECG interpretation and features over 200 clearly explained ECG rhythm strips. Following a refresher on relevant cardiac anatomy, physiology, and electrophysiology, the book presents the 8-step method for reading any rhythm strip. Subsequent chapters explain various cardiac rate and rhythm abnormalities, including sinus node arrhythmias, atrial arrhythmias, junctional arrhythmias, ventricular arrhythmias, and atrioventricular blocks. Arrhythmias are covered in a consistent format—causes, significance, ECG characteristics, signs and symptoms, and interventions. Coverage also includes ECG characteristics of disorders, drugs, pacemakers, and implantable cardioverter-defibrillators and a chapter on basic 12-lead electrocardiography.

Fast and Easy ECGs: A Self-Paced Learning Program is a first edition product for McGraw-Hill Higher Education. ECG interpretation is a difficult skill to master and often students must learn and practice it on their own time. Fast and Easy ECG is designed to bring the classroom to the student through the use of sidebar instructor comments, questions, and clinical tidbits. Concepts are learned through a philosophy of repetition, anatomical understanding of dysrhythmias and practice. The companion DVD brings an ECG instructor (co-author Dr. Keith Wesley) to the reader by providing lectures of important concepts and skills. Fast and Easy ECGs covers the 5-step process for basic ECG interpretation and introduces the reader to concepts in 12-lead ECG interpretation.
