recommend this book February 18, 2010
charla
very good explanation of normal waveforms and the rationale behind abnormal waveforms. Like the format of more basic information presented separately from more complex information that may be reviewed concurrently or after learning the basics first.
 Solid book February 4, 2010
Jill Sanders (Nashville, Tennessee, US)
This book is a decent book for learning 12 Lead EKGs. It is through and introduces things in a stepwise fashion. It was not as valuable to me as the book I used to learn single lead EKGs, the EKG workout book (Huff). After spending a weekend with that book, I became very confident. A weekend with this book has left me with a pretty rudimentary understanding.
I think it would benefit from the addition of more practice strips. It is too easy to coast along thinking you are learning from reading the interpretations provided as you go. The language can be a little strange. PACs are called APCs, PVCs are VPCs. I've never encountered that language in clinical practice, so it could be confusing to learn them that way...

This book has been the best resource I have ever used. It has become my bible. I recommend it to anyone that wants to become proficient in ECG interpretation!

Ferdinand C. Diblasio Jr. (New York, USA)
Excellent Book for the beginner or advanced EKG reader - be it a nurse, physician or EMT... Great ad detailed explainations of all EKG abnormalities and uses full sized EKG examples, 12 lead sheets, not just short strips...
Excellent book...if you take your time- you will be an ekg expert. June 6, 2009
R. Kailayanathan (NY,NY)
Excellent book. Has three levels- I II III- great system for beginners. It takes some time but if you complete this you'll be an expert in interpreting EKG. This book has everything you'll ever need to know about 12 lead ekg...came highly recommended by two ER MDs. If you really want to learn about ekg, then buy this book.
