Ecgs for Nurses

The ECG is one of the most valuable diagnostic tools in modern medicine. Recording and interpreting the ECG is a complex process and misinterpretation of results can have serious repercussions on the patient's diagnosis and care, yet, until now, there has been no practical, instructive ECG book for nurses. From the principles of ECG monitoring and interpretation through to the treatment of cardiac arrhythmias and guidance on record keeping, this book contains everything nurses need to know about ECGs. Designed to be a handy reference book, it is packed full of real ECGs and case studies with brief discussions on possible effects on the patient, treatment and the nurses role.Jevon, Phil is the author of 'Ecgs for Nurses' with ISBN 9780632058020 and ISBN 0632058021.
