Each heart rhythm covered in the book includes a sample ECG rhythm strip and a discussion of possible patient symptoms and general treatment guidelines. Other user-friendly features include: ECG Pearls with insights based on real-world experience, Drug Pearls highlighting the medications used to treat dysrhythmias, Clinical Correlation call-outs, Lead In applicatinos, Stop & Review questions, a comprehensive post-test with answers, and more. It’s everything you need to master ECG interpretation with ease!

• Clear ECG discussions highlight what you need to know about ECG mechanisms, rhythms, and heart blocks, such as: How Do I Recognize It? What Causes It? What Do I Do About It?
• Introduction to the 12-Lead ECG chapter provides all the basics for this advanced skill, including determining electrical axis, ECG changes associated with myocardial ischemia and infarction, bundle branch block, and other conditions.
• A comprehensive post-test with answers at the end of the book measures your understanding.
• ECG Pearl boxes offer useful hints for interpreting ECGs, such as the importance of the escape pacemaker.
• Drug Pearl boxes highlight various medications used to treat dysrhythmias.
• Chapter key terms focus your attention on the most important information.
• Chapter objectives tied to chapter text enable you to quickly review content that satisfies specific learning objectives.
