Free eBooks ECG Success: Exercises In ECG Interpretation Available To Downloads
The key to ECG interpretation is pattern recognition, and pattern recognition is developed the same way as any skill—through repetition. ECG Success illustrates the key features of dozens of arrhythmias and presents multiple practice strips to allow the student to learn the subtle findings that help distinguish one from another.Organized by the seven categories of arrhythmias, ECG Success reviews the basics of ECGs (anatomy, physiology, electrophysiology, etc.), and provides a diverse group of strips for practice and testing pattern recognition. In addition, the book includes four practice tests, each with 75 randomized ECG strips, and a unit with more than ten case studies with multiple-choice questions and more ECG strips.ECG Success covers all the information needed—anatomy and physiology, practice, case scenarios, and relevant emergency care—to help the reader feel competent and in control, whether faced with a nonthreatening ECG or an emergency situation.

I was very irritated by the inability to see an EKG preview when evaluating an EKG book. Often that sort of blocked preview hides a graphically inferior book. Having taken a chance and purchased the book, I can now say that the Rhythm strips are of good quality, show up well in the iPad using Kindle program, and the book navigates relatively well. Information is well organized.Shortcomings: too few actual 12 leads. Most are in the formate of a single beat only. Part of what a beginner needs to see a lot is complete EKGs in their usual clinical format to really get comfortable with reading quickly.Overall a good book. I will be using this resource to teach the residents (IM, FP and transitional) that rotate with us.If this book does not look like your particular cup of tea, a good second choice is the ridiculously titled but readable "The Only EKG Book You'll Ever Need." I used that myself during residency some time ago and still lend mine out to residents on the service. It can quickly bring a resident with EKG deficiency up to speed.The quizzes in this (the above) book and overall volume of information look better for purpose of more in depth teaching.
This is a decent ECG instruction book. The one complaint I have is that the rates in the answer key do not always match up with the rate-finding method that the book says you should use for a particular type of rhythm. Other than that, a clear and concise reference/workbook.
Would give it 5 stars, but the author goes ahead and includes rhythms in the practice strips before even teaching anything about them. Example is including bundle branch blocks on page 35,but not explaining them until page 58.
it is great for practicing your ECG skills, such as how to identify a certain rhythm by its characteristics, but it only shows strips in one lead (III), so its limited in its applicability to a 12 lead. I would recommend it, but also get Dubins, for a more concrete understanding
This book was needed for a course on ECG and was a perfect tool for the task. The strip examples were from actual ECGreading and had examples of all the elements of what we had to know.
As an RT student, I found this book to be very helpful with analyzing cardiac rhythms & has great pictures to go along with it. It was easy to read & didn't insult my intelligence.
This book contains many examples of ECG rhythm strips that are clear and leave no question about interpretation. I have recommended it to new staff members to learn to read ECGs.
Purchased this book for school and decided to keep it for a reference! Was it great shape and came as promised.
