Designed for readers who learn new skills best by doing, this case-based approach is the closest thing to treating real-life patients. Rather than straight memorization, this book bridges the gap between fact and application with an emphasis on developing the critical thinking skills that are essential to reading and interpreting ECGs in practice. In addition to all the basics of ECG interpretation, A Case-based Approach to ECG Interpretation features chapter self-tests with a variety of question formats, 70 in-depth case scenarios, and 290 practice rhythm strips from actual patient encounters! A heart rate calculator ruler is also included!

The authors are expert instructors with many years of first-hand, clinical nursing and prehospital experience, well qualified to ensure that the material is current, accurate, and relevant.
Content has been reviewed for accuracy by experts from programs, organizations, and services across the country.
All the basics are included, from learning cardiac anatomy to reading ECG strips and identifying the rhythms.
Extensive case scenarios in virtually all chapters (30 total in chapters 3-8), plus chapter 10 which is comprised entirely of 40 additional practice case scenarios, enable readers to apply their knowledge to true-life situations and experience the next best thing to actually being in the field.
90 practice rhythm strips are included at the end of chapters 3-8 (15 per chapter), and chapter 9 contains 200 additional practice rhythm strips never before published.
Packaged with a unique Heart Rate Ruler, one of the fastest, most accurate ways to determine heart rate in an ECG strip.
A clean, clear layout has been devised for ease of use, with text printed in easy-to-read blue ink, ensuring that the reader will have no trouble locating items in the text.
Chapter Objectives are presented at the beginning of each chapter so readers can keep goals for each chapter in mind while reading, or use them as a checklist to avoid missing key points.
Chapter Outlines at the beginning of each chapter help readers quickly locate topics of interest.
Integrated Note Boxes throughout the text emphasize important or often overlooked facts.
A self-test for every chapter, made up of multiple choice, true/false, matching, or fill-in-the-blank questions, allows readers to test their knowledge of the chapter's key information.
