The heart is the central pumping organ that circulates blood throughout the body. A comprehensive understanding of its function can help understanding of disease processes and redemptive strategies. This book presents a thorough discussion of electrocardiography—one of the most common cardiac diagnostic techniques. Coverage ranges from essential concepts to practical applications for use by clinicians, nurses, paramedics, and other healthcare professionals in a variety settings. The text is well-illustrated with figures and tables throughout each chapter for clarity and comprehension. This book begins with background information on the basic components of the heart and the central concepts of electrocardiography. It then follows with descriptions of 12-lead electrocardiograms, emphasizing each lead with its own chapter. A further chapter focuses on pathologies and anomalies, including hypertrophy and hyperplasia, infarction and ischemia, heart block and conduction disorders, trauma and poisonings, congenital abnormalities, infection and infestation, old age changes. Additional chapters provide a discussion on electrocardiography in patients in prenatal stages through the ninth decade of life. The book concludes with an extensive appendix covering the basics of ECG diagnosis, equipment used, and step-by-step protocols for performing the techniques. The book provides a thorough background on all aspects of electrocardiography (ECG) in all patients. It particularly offers detailed information regarding ECG features in patients with underlying disease states or who are at high risk for developing certain conditions. The text is both thorough and concise, making it widely accessible to healthcare professionals operating in various settings—from critically-ill patients to children and adults, from physicians to nurses—who need to understand the intricacies of cardiac function. In addition, the book is an excellent reference for students of cardiovascular biology, engineering, and medicine. The book takes a practical approach to electrocardiography and has been designed to be of use to all healthcare professionals, whether working in a general or hospital setting. It explains how electrocardiography can be used as a diagnostic tool and the kind of information it can provide about the structure or function of the heart. This book also explores issues arising from ECG interpretation in different clinical settings, including children's clinic. The book is widely acknowledged as an educational resource for ECG interpretation in all settings across multiple specialties. It has been widely relied upon by practitioners of all levels, including medical students, nursing students, paramedics, nurses at all levels of training, and midwives.
