Synopsis

Created by experts from the Mayo Clinic, Interpretation of Intracardiac Electrograms: The Fundamentals is a unique, interactive online tool to help trainees, technicians, and clinicians gain a working understanding of basic intracardiac electrophysiologic concepts and tracings. Online examples of tracings combined with dynamic animations illustrate concepts in sinus rhythm, third-degree atrioventricular block, atrioventricular re-entrant tachycardia, ablation procedures, AV nodal re-entrant tachycardia, atrial flutter, atrial fibrillation, and ventricular tachycardia.

A self-assessment examination is included so that you may test yourself on the rhythms you have learned, and review those that pose extra difficulty.

This unique online teaching tool...

• Provides examples of intracardiac electrophysiologic tracings and animation of the electrical wavefronts on a heart diagram
• Offers a brief description of each arrhythmia, followed by an interactive version of an intracardiac electrophysiologic tracing
• Shows the wavefront as it moves through the heart diagram
• Uses color-coded catheters to match the electrophysiologic tracings to which they correspond
• Tests your knowledge before and then after using the module with a brief self-assessment exam
