| ekg education and training: Marriott's Practical Electrocardiography Galen S Wagner, David G. Strauss, 2013-12-18 One of the strengths of Marriott's Practical Electrocardiography through its more than 50-year history has been its lucid foundation for understanding the basis for ECG interpretation. Again, in this revision, we have attempted to retain the best of the Marriott tradition--emphasis on the concepts required for everyday ECG interpretation and the simplicities, rather than complexities, of the ECG recordings. During preparation of the 9th and 10th editions, Tobin Lim coauthored many of the 11th edition chapters and served as the primary developer of the digital content associated with that edition. Tobin Lim's input continues into this 12th edition, and David Strauss has led even further into the electronic-based interactive learning experiences. More than 30 of the figures that evolved through previous editions have now been converted through the creative expertise of Mark Flanders into animated movies accessed via QR codes imbedded in the book. David has also collaborated with electrocardiographic educators who are especially skilled in e-based education to add interactive video content to many of the 12th edition chapters. Each of the now 24 chapters is divided (as indicated in the table of contents) into discrete, compact learning units. Each learning unit begins on a new page to provide blank space for the reader's notes. The purpose of the learning units is to make this book easier to use by allowing the reader to be selective regarding the material to be considered at a particular time. Because the modern student of electrocardiography is primarily oriented to a visual perspective, we have typically begun each page with an illustration--Provided by publisher. |

| ekg education and training: 12 Lead ECG Interpretation in Acute Coronary Syndrome with Case Studies from the Cardiac Catheterization Lab Wayne W. Ruppert, 2010-10 This 304 page full-color textbook is essentially two volumes in one. The first 92 pages present the basic principles of 12 lead ECG interpretation. The remainder of the book focuses on the evaluation of Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS) patients. 13 ECG patterns associated with ACS are presented, including the most subtle ECG changes most often missed by clinicians and the ECG machine's automated interpretation software. The curriculum provides an in-depth, balanced approach to patient assessment, combining advanced ECG interpretation skills with patient history, risk factor and cardiac marker evaluation. Correlation of ECG leads with the coronary arterial distributions which commonly supply each region of the heart are reinforced by use of 24 case studies of ST Segment Elevation Myocaridal Infarction (STEMI), Non ST Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction (NSTEMI), Unstable Angina, and Brugada Syndrome. Case studies begin with patients' initial assessment data obtained in the emergency department and continue into the cardiac catheterization lab where coronary artery angiography illustrates the location of arterial obstruction. Key learning objectives for each type of Myocardial Infarction (MI) are highlighted. 453 full color images, 135 review questions, and 114 ECGs reinforce the learning process. Target audience is all medical professionals whom are already competent in single-lead rhythm strip evaluation, and desire to become proficient in the 12 lead ECG evaluation of Acute Coronary Syndrome patients.
