12-Lead ECG: The Art of Interpretation, UK Student Edition
Authors:OVERVIEW
Welcome to the most comprehensive resource on 12-Lead ECG interpretation!
This all-encompassing, four-colour text, updated to the new Second Edition, is designed to make you a fully advanced interpreter of ECGs. Whether you are paramedic, nurse, nurse practitioner, physician assistant, medical student, or physician wanting to learn or brush up on your knowledge of electrocardiography, this book will meet your needs.
12-Lead ECG: The Art of Interpretation, Second Edition takes the complex subject of electrocardiography and presents it in a simple, innovative, 3-level approach. Level 1 provides basic information for those with minimal experience interpreting ECGs. Level 2 provides intermediate information for those with a basic understanding of the principles of electrocardiography. Level 3 provides advanced information for those with some mastery of the subject. The entire text is written in a friendly, easy-to-read tone. Additionally, the text contains real-life, full-size ECG strips that are integrated throughout the text and analysed in conjunction with the concepts they illustrate.
This book is a fantastic resource for those entering to the world of ECG interpretation. It provides a systematic approach to learn the basic rules of interpreting ECGs while also offering increasingly advanced and nuanced levels of interpretation. This is provided in a very progressive and logical (Levels 1-3) format that is easy to follow. The concepts explained are supported by excellent illustrations well as full size A4 examples of ECGs which adds authenticity and facilitates transfer to real practice. I would strongly recommend this book both for students and any qualified clinicians who are looking to interpret ECGs as part of their clinical practice.
