Introduction to Basic Cardiac Rhythms
Introduction to Basic Cardiac Rhythms
The Basic ECG Course is a tool for you to learn how to interpret heart patterns and very basic anatomy and physiology behind the rhythms. The course is designed as a precursor for advanced courses, such as Advanced Cardiac Life Support and Pediatric Advanced Life Support. This course is also beneficial to anyone who needs to be able to read heart rhythms on a heart monitor. This rhythm course is designed to serve as a review of all of the basic cardiac rhythms. It is a great course to use in preparation for ACLS if you do not work in a practice environment where you interpret rhythms often.
