- Where to place EKG leads
- Facts about the heart conduction system and how they are recorded on an EKG
- EKG waveform components
- The steps of EKG interpretation
- The natural pacemakers in the heart and how they differ
- Differentiation of the essential rhythms (sinus, atrial, junctional, and ventricular) and dysrhythmias
- How electrolyte imbalances, and cardiac/respiratory disorders impact EKG results
- Causes, symptoms, and interventions for bradycardia and tachycardia
What's included?
