520 "Grasp the electrocardiography basics and identify
arrhythmias accurately, with the freshly updated ECG
Workout, 7th Edition. Fully addressing the most common
arrhythmias, this clearly worded text will take you step-
by-step through expert ECG tracing interpretation methods,
including differentiating among rhythm groups, equipment
use, and management protocols. This is the go-to ECG guide
for both student training and professional review--perfect
for physicians, nurses, medical and nursing students,
paramedics, emergency medical technicians, telemetry
technicians, and related practitioners. Get a strong
grounding in accurate ECG readings with: NEW pull-out
arrhythmia summary cards help you interpret end-of-chapter
practice strips, NEW and updated advanced cardiac life
support (ACLS) guidelines incorporated in each arrhythmia
chapter, NEW and updated figures, boxes, tables, and
additional practice strips, Updated coverage of all ECG
concepts and skills, including: Illustrated anatomy and
physiology of the heart, Electrical basis of
electrocardiology, Arrhythmia chapters: sinus, atrial,
junctional and AV blocks, ventricular and bundle-branch
block rhythms--examples, causes, clinical treatments, and
practice strips, Step-by-step direction on interpreting
rhythm strips, Components of the ECG tracing: waveforms,
intervals, segments, complexes, and waveform
identification, Discussion of cardiac monitors, lead
systems, lead placement, ECG artifacts, and
troubleshooting monitor problems, Methods for precise rate
calculation, Discussion of cardiac pacemakers: types,
indications,functtion, pacemaker terminology, malfunctions,
and pacemaker analysis, with practice tracings. ECG
conversion table ensures precise heart rate calculation
with plastic pocket version insideback cover. Skillbuilder
practice strips--more than 600 life-size ECG tracings: End
-of-chapter strips from actual patients, with 3-second
indicators for rapid-rate calculation, and answers at back
of book. A mix of arrhythmias to help you distinguish
among types. Posttest with mix of more than 100 waveform
rhythm strips, for student testing or self- evaluation"--
