Mastery of ECG interpretation is achieved not only by
pattern recognition, but equally importantly, by a clear,
practical understanding of how electricity moves through the heart
and how disruption of that movement manifests itself via ECG
tracings.
ECGs for Beginners, written by one of the world’s most
respected electrophysiologists with over 40 years experience of
training clinicians, will provide cardiology and electrophysiology
trainees with an easy to follow, step-by-step guide
to the topic, thus enabling them to both understand and
interpret ECG readings in order to to best manage their
patients.
Packed with over 250 high-quality ECG tracings, as well as
management algorithms and key points throughout, every chapter
also contains self-assessment questions, allowing the reader to
test themselves on what they’ve just learnt.
All kinds of arrhythmias will be covered, as well as
morphological abnormalities such as atrial and
ventricular problems. Importantly, normal ECG readings will
be presented alongside abnormal readings, to best
demonstrate how and why abnormalities occur.
ECGs for Beginners is an essential purchase for all cardiology
and electrophysiology trainees, as well as being a handy
refresher guide for the experienced physician.
