I’ve found a few good resources that I think will help you learn ECG quickly and confidently.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. The Six Second ECG<\/strong> (www.skillstat.com)<\/span><\/a> – This flash program will help you learn and identify ECGs in a…\u00a0flash<\/em>! There’s a game mode where you need to identify the rhythms within 1 minute. After 30 minutes of playing you will learn to identify sinus arrest from wandering pacemakers from idioventricular rhythms. It’s pretty fun and can get competitive if you race your friends!<\/span><\/li>\n
  2. Making sense of ECG<\/strong><\/span><\/a> – I read through this book after a resident recommended it to me during my internal medicine rotation. It has basic to advanced interpretations including some physiology and treatment. It’s a relatively quick and fast read, high-yield but thorough enough to use as a reference for topics you’d like to go over again.<\/li>\n
  3. ECGpedia.org<\/strong><\/span><\/a>\u00a0– I like this site because of some pretty good tables that cover things like supraventricular or ventricular rhythms. Sometimes wordy but I keep coming back to it. It has some nice diagrams of the heart too. Another plus are the esoteric and really rare findings that survey ECG books may leave out.<\/li>\n
  4. ECG cheat sheet<\/strong><\/span><\/a> – And of course I give a plug to my very own ECG cheat sheet. Reference in your pocket and learn how to present to an attending!<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Good luck!<\/p>\n
