EASY ECG- powerpoint presentations

"The ECG learning modules are designed to help you learn how to look at ECG rhythm strips and interpret them. Is the strip the normal rhythm of the heart -- normal sinus rhythm? Or an abnormal and potential dangerous rhythm like ventricular fibrillation? You will also be introduced to the 12-lead ECG and learn how to look for signs of an acute myocardial infarction" - UCSF SCHOOL OF MEDICINE
