For 30 years the world's best seller (printed in 28 languages), RAPID INTERPRETATION OF EKG's is the most popular
and most referenced of all EKG (ECG) texts. But beware... success breeds imitations.
Competitors, aware of its longstanding success, imitate this classic by using synonyms for RAPID or INTERPRETATION
or by substituting "ECG's" for EKG's. Don't be deceived by the numerous look-alikes with enticing titles.
There is only one RAPID INTERPRETATION OF EKG's.
Now it is the most current text of its kind, since it is updated yearly. Extensively illustrated and simplified
to assure rapid comprehension, an entire chapter is easily consumed and mastered in a sitting. In the process of
learning EKG interpretation, the reader gains a deeper understanding of cardiac physiology. Emphasis is on UNDERSTANDING
rather than memorizing, so readers quickly acquire a lifetime of practical knowledge.
This classic text is an introduction to electrocardiography and interpretation for medical students or nurses.
The 6th Edition has been completely revised and updated, with new 3-D contoured, full-color graphics and illustrations
on every page.
