Clinical Electrocardiography: A Textbook 5th Edition

Clinical Electrocardiography: A Textbook 5th Edition

This medical book Electrocardiography is a transthoracic recording over a period of time. Electrical activity is detected and recorded via electrodes attached to the outer surface of the skin. The recording produced by this noninvasive procedure is termed as electrocardiogram. ECGs are used to measure the rate and regularity of heartbeats as well as the size and position of the chambers, the presence of any damage to the heart, and the effects of drugs or devices used to regulate the heart.

This medical book Clinical Electrocardiography is the clearest and most accessible guide available to the application and interpretation of the ECG in clinical practice. The book proceeds from the belief that ECG patterns should not be memorized, but rather must be understood based on how they originate; it is only by achieving this level of understanding that clinicians can make the most informed diagnoses and thus manage patient care with complete confidence. This fully revised 5th edition:

  • Gives clear information about the correct diagnoses of different heart diseases based on ECG alterations.
  • Presents an exceedingly clear and linear approach to understanding the application and interpretation of the ECG in clinical practice.
  • Explains the electrical activity of the heart and basic electrocardiographic principals.
  • Offers guidance on normal ECG patterns and the changes various heart diseases produce in ECG morphology
  • Provides a practical, deductive approach to the diagnosis of arrhythmias – one of the most challenging tasks for many clinicians
  • Summarizes current knowledge of the clinical implication of rhythmic disturbances.

First Aid Clinical Pattern Recognition for the USMLE Step 1

First Aid Clinical Pattern Recognition for the USMLE Step 1

First Aid Clinical Pattern Recognition for the USMLE Step 1

Despite the recent changes to the USMLE Step 1, it remains a very important exam for medical students. In order to navigate the vignette-based questions, students must be able to determine a diagnosis based on the vignette, then understand the science behind the diagnosis―a process called pattern recognition. This innovative guide will help you master  pattern recognition―a crucial skill to develop in order to thrive throughout the medical school curriculum.

Organized by symptom to reflect exactly what you’ll see on test day, This medical book provides overviews for more than 50 symptoms, discussing differential diagnosis and the principles that should inform your thinking about each symptom. Overviews are followed by Step 1-style vignettes for every potential diagnosis that may be included in the Step 1 exam. Then, each vignette is followed by the diagnosis―and competing diagnoses―along with explanations of why the patterns fit for the correct diagnosis.

Guiding principles provide important information (such as which diagnoses are common, which are rare, which are acute, which are chronic, etc.) to enhance the way you think about each symptom. Each vignette contains classic history/physical exam and lab/test findings that would be observed in a typical presentation of the disease.
