Additional Details
Highly practical accompanying volume to a bestselling resource on the 12-lead electrocardiogram for emergency physicians
Volume 2 of the popular ECGs for Acute, Critical and Emergency Care (formerly titled ECGs for the Emergency Physician, Volume 2) delivers essential practical guidance on the use and interpretation of the 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG). This enhanced edition enables readers to quickly locate the objective criteria necessary for various diagnoses, understand different electrocardiographic waveforms and their meaning in individual patients, and interpret the ECG within the context of the patient’s presentation.
This Second Edition has been extensively revised throughout to present the latest cutting-edge literature and real-life scenarios that practitioners are likely to encounter in the emergency department. Within each ECG, readers will find case histories, clinically focused reviews, and additional comments from the authors.
The book is divided into three sections. The first section presents ECGs with a focus on dysrhythmias. The second and third sections are divided into intermediate- and advanced-level ECGs, respectively.
A range of providers may utilize this book, including practitioners and students in emergency care, critical care, and cardiology. This book organizes a large number of ECGs to allow readers to collect information from individual cases. The quality of content presented strongly supports the book's teaching objective. The authors are senior emergency medicine physicians with responsibility for EMS direction.
Doody's Review
"The quality of this book strongly advances the work of the authors. Offering guidance on patient management using electrocardiography is a complex task. It involves recognizing waveform patterns that must be combined with difficult clinical physiology. This book has done this task well for a number of years."
