This extensively illustrated reference tool contains the essential information a student needs to interpret and manage dysrhythmias. ECGs are explained first, along with the basic ways to acquire readings, followed by material on how to interpret ECGs to arrive at a diagnosis, and how to treat individual conditions. More complex information is presented next, followed by the advanced sections, detailing the formation of a thrombus and treatment information for acute myocardial infarctions. Topics are grouped by subject to give students a convenient quick reference book that incorporates the latest AHA Guidelines 2000 for CPR and Emergency Cardiovascular Care. This concise, pocket-size reference accompanies Huszar, Basic Dysrythmias: Interpretation and Management, 3rd Edition.
