Electrocardiography is an essential tool in diagnosing cardiac
disorders. This second edition of the ABC of Clinical
Electrocardiography allows readers to become familiar with the wide
range of patterns seen in the electrocardiogram in clinical
practice and covers the fundamentals of ECG interpretation and
analysis.
Fully revised and updated, this edition includes a self-assessment
section to aid revision and check comprehension, clear anatomical
diagrams to illustrate key points and a larger format to show
12-lead ECGs clearly and without truncation.
Edited and written by leading experts, the ABC of Clinical
Electrocardiography is a valuable text for anyone managing patients
with heart disorders, both in general practice and in hospitals.
Junior doctors and nurses, especially those working in cardiology
and emergency departments, as well as medical students, will find

clinical tool.
