This enhanced edition enables readers to quickly locate the objective criteria necessary for various diagnoses, understand different electrocardiographic waveforms and their meaning in individual patients, and interpret the ECG within the context of the patient’s presentation.
This Second Edition has been extensively revised throughout to present the latest cutting-edge literature and real-life scenarios that practitioners are likely to encounter in the emergency department. Within each ECG, readers will find case histories, clinically focused reviews, and additional comments from the authors.
The book is divided into three sections. The first section presents ECGs with a focus on dysrhythmias. The second and third sections are divided into intermediate- and advanced-level ECGs, respectively.
