Electrocardiography is one of the most common investigations performed by physicians, surgeons, general practitioners, nursing staff and paramedics. For cardiologists or those who read ECGs every day, pattern recognition in ECGs can become fairly straightforward; for most others even basic ECGs can present problems. If you are a non-expert, a trainee, or simply lack confidence in reliably interpreting ECGs, Making Sense of the ECG is designed for you. Find answers to the following important questions: BLHow do I interpret this ECG? BLAre these abnormalities significant? BLHow do I distinguish between VT and SVT? BLHas this patient had a myocardial infarction? BLHow do I measure a QT interval? BLShould I refer this patient to a cardiologist? BLOr, simply, what should I do next?
After reading this book I finally could interpret the ECGs. I think it's a very good book for medical students, learning how to "read" all the information given by an ECG.
