Course Description

Overview

Learn the fundamentals of electrocardiography (ECG/EKG) in this comprehensive 52-minute video lecture. Explore the cardiac conduction system, understand wave deflections, and master the interpretation of key EKG components including P-waves, PR intervals, QRS complexes, ST segments, and T-waves. Discover the various types of EKG leads, including bipolar limb leads, augmented unipolar limb leads, and precordial chest leads. Gain practical knowledge on lead placement and reporting locations to effectively analyze heart activity in both transverse and frontal planes, enabling you to identify potential cardiac pathologies.
