Learn to effectively interpret virtually every ECG you're likely to encounter in clinical practice - in ten brief lessons

The only review book to offer full-sized ECGs throughout (simulating how they appear on tests and in actual practice), this sourcebook is the most sought-after ECG review anywhere, trusted by cardiology fellows, internal medicine residents, and medical students alike. ECG in Ten Days is based on the author's popular ten-day review course, and features a unique step-by-step approach, crystal-clear vector images, plus practice EDB strips to build confidence and fine-tune clinical skills.

In these pages, you'll find essential information on everything from SA & AV nodal conduction abnormalities, to mechanisms of arrhythmias and electronic pacemakers. Also included is an answer sheet similar to the one encountered on board exams.

• A brand-new glossary with key terms, which are also bolded within the text
• Short appendix that includes formal criteria for various ECG diagnoses
• Consolidated chapters 2 and 3 for a more cohesive look at super ventricular arrhythmias
• Reorganized chapters that streamline the content on Day 6, and help ensure a more efficient, manageable review of the material

Review:

" ... "Goldfrank' s" remains the premier reference text in clinical toxicology, and all physicians involved in the management of poisoned patients would benefit from having it in their offices. So, when you need quick information on poisonings, use your pocket texts, PDAs, and the Web. When you want knowledge, dust off your shelf and pull down "Goldfrank' s,""

" There are approximately 5 other texts on clinical toxicology in the US market, but none beats "Goldfrank' s" in scope, depth, features, readability, and up-to-date information... This is a comprehensive, up-to-date reference book on the management of poisoned and overdosed patients and should be considered a standard text for medical libraries, emergency departments, critical care units, and clinical pharmacy collections."
