This full-color textbook prepares medical professionals whom are competent in single-lead ECG rhythm strip interpretation to read 12 lead ECGs, with special emphasis on identification of the ECG markers of Acute Coronary Syndrome. Correlation of ECG leads with the coronary arterial distribution which supplies each region of the heart are reinforced by use of 19 case studies of ST Segment Elevation Myocaridal Infarction (STEMI), Non ST Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction (NSTEMI)...
More DescriptionThis full-color textbook prepares medical professionals whom are competent in single-lead ECG rhythm strip interpretation to read 12 lead ECGs, with special emphasis on identification of the ECG markers of Acute Coronary Syndrome. Correlation of ECG leads with the coronary arterial distribution which supplies each region of the heart are reinforced by use of 19 case studies of ST Segment Elevation Myocaridal Infarction (STEMI), Non ST Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction (NSTEMI) and Unstable Angina. 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 are highlighted. 453 full color images, 135 review questions, and 114 ECGs reinforce the learning process. Target audience is all medical professionals who treat cardiac patients and reveiw their 12 lead ECGs.
