This
book is a portable, easy to view, quick reference pocket guide. It puts
the key points about how to recognize the various dysrhythmias and
cardiac conditions at the fingertips of the practitioner allowing them
to quickly identify what they see in the field and/or clinical setting.
It is also a useful tool in the classroom for the student to quickly
look up key information. There is a short introduction that talks about
the location of the heart, lead placement and the nine step process for
interpreting the various wave forms and characteristics. It briefly
describes the normal and abnormal features found on ECG tracings. It
visually demonstrates how to calculate
the heart rate, identify irregularities and identify and measure the
various waveforms, intervals and segments. The introductory information
is followed by chapters, broken out by where the dysrhythmias originate
(i.e., sinus, atrial, junctional, ventricular, AV heart block),
on the key characteristics of various dysrhythmias and conditions that
can be detected through the use of the electrocardiogram.
