Lyon, MD United States Air Force Hurlburt Field, FL "A Visual Guide to ECG Interpretation attempts to break down how to systematically read and analyze an ECG graphically. This book is a 525-page compilation of ECG basics, specific ECG findings, and ECG examples from actual patients. The work is divided into 13 chapters, each covering a different topic, including ECG concepts, abnormalities organized by the different components of an ECG, arrhythmias, ischemic findings, and other unique ECG clinical pictures. The chapters are broken down into specific topics, and an attempt is made at visually organizing each topic in a pseudo-flowchart format with standard headings." "For an emergency physician looking for a refresher in ECGs, this book may provide too much "textbook" detail. Although some individuals may prefer the "big picture" view of ECGs using methods such as "big box" versus "small box" for determining intervals, those who prefer to use formulas for interval calculations will find solace in this work." "Chapters 12 ("Ischemia") and 13 ("Pacemakers") are the best ones in the book. They do an excellent job summarizing the topics, explaining the "why" for each subject, and using pictures and graphics to effectively demonstrate what the text is trying to convey. The chapters are also well organized and are easier to follow." "At least half of the book is a compilation of ECGs from actual patients, with examples of findings that were covered previously in that chapter. Each ECG is provided twice, the first without markings and with a short clinical history limited to one sentence. The second highlights the findings and provides a brief explanation of what was found." "The best audience for this text would be fourth-year medical students or interns (of any specialty), not someone who has a good grasp of ECGs and is just looking for a refresher. The amount of detail provided is good but slows the reader down. In addition, if the reader is more visually inclined, some of the topics could use more graphics and pictures to demonstrate concepts. Chapters 12 and 13, however, do a great job at summarizing and organizing their topics, with excellent ECG examples to practice, and can be used for a quick review."
