10 EKG or ECGs showing different pathologies
Rhythms at glance
There are three basic parts to an EKG: P wave: this is the wave that shows what is going on in the atria of the heart aka atrial contraction QRS: think ventricles, if there's an abnormal QRS the problem is almost always in the ventricles If the QRS is narrow: the problem is above the…
This ECG Interpretation course will show how to identify normal versus abnormal cardiac anatomy, cardiac cycle and electrical conduction through the heart.
Understanding and interpreting electrocardiogram (EKG) rhythms can be confusing and intimidating. However, this comprehensive EKG course is designed to simplify the subject, making it approachable and less overwhelming. In this course, we aim to simplify the fundamental concepts of how electrical impulses traverse the heart and manifest as distinctive patterns on the EKG waveform. What Is An EKG At its core, an EKG is a visual representation of the heart’s electrical activity, and comprehending it requires a fundamental understanding of cardiac physiology. Our course equips you with the essential knowledge to grasp this vital aspect of cardiology. We’ll guide you through the intricate journey of electricity within the heart, illustrating how it culminates in the characteristic EKG tracings. One of the main challenges in EKG interpretation is deciphering various heart rhythms. This course specializes in demystifying the most prevalent and clinically significant cardiac rhythms you’ll encounter. Whether it’s normal sinus rhythm, atrial fibrillation, or ventricular tachycardia, we break down each rhythm into digestible components, ensuring that you not only recognize them but also comprehend the underlying physiological processes and potential clinical implications. By The End of The EKG Course By the end of this course, you’ll no longer find EKG interpretation intimidating or confusing. Instead, you’ll have the confidence to analyze EKGs effectively and understand the electrical events occurring within the heart. Our aim is to empower you with the knowledge and skills necessary to excel in this critical aspect of healthcare. So, join us on this journey to unlock the mysteries of EKG rhythms and gain the expertise to interpret them with ease.
Learn the essentials of electrocardiogram (EKG) interpretation, from understanding waveforms to identifying common arrhythmias accurately.

An EKG/ECG is a representation of the electrical activity of the heart muscle as it changes with time.
measuring EKG strips! of note: any QT interval (QTc) greater than 0.5 means your patient is at risk for arrhythmias so you need to watch what medications you’re giving! quick notes: - your EKG strip will have small boxes. each box is 0.04 secs - to find the heart rate quickly on a 6 second ekg strip count the R waves (tall peaks) - measure length between each R wave to see if the rhythm is regular (all the same amount apart) or irregular (all different)
