For junior doctors, qualified nurses, paramedics and GPs who already understand the basics of the electrocardiogram (ECG), this reference guide will support diagnosis and treatment decisions.
The ECG Made Practical, Eighth Edition is a clinically-orientated book, showing how the ECG can help in the diagnosis and treatment of patients with symptoms suggesting cardiovascular disease. The underlying philosophy of this eighth edition remains that the ECG has to be interpreted in the light of the patient's history and physical examination, thus the book is organised in chapters according to a patient's symptoms.
