Interpreting EKGs can be challenging, especially at first. This session emphasizes the importance of the 12-Lead EKG as a key diagnostic tool and introduces a systematic approach to building confidence and proficiency in 12-Lead interpretation. Through case studies and discussion, this comprehensive presentation explores the relationship between cardiac structure and conduction and the basics of EKG interpretation, including correlating voltage with volume and identifying conduction abnormalities.
Some of the topics in this session include:
- Electrode placement
- Waves
- Intervals
- Segments
- Recognizing blocks
- Premature complexes
- Cardiac damage
