Short description
Fast and Easy ECGs: A Self-Paced Learning Program brings the classroom to the student! Organized using the 5-step interpretation approach, concepts are taught with a combination of repetition, anatomical and physiological understanding of the dysrhythmias and practice. Stimulating sidebars highlight key concepts and provide instructor notes, critical thinking questions, and clinical tidbits. The ECG Mentor Companion DVD brings an ECG instructor (co-author Dr. Keith Wesley) to the reader with presentations, demonstrations and animations of difficult-to-grasp and key concepts. Fast and Easy ECGs covers basic ECG interpretation and introduces the reader to concepts in 12-lead ECG interpretation.
