Performance
The content provides comprehensive information on anatomy and physiology, proper use of a heart monitor, and the identification and interpretation of EKG tracings, including:
The EKG review discusses a systematic approach to rhythm interpretation to help diagnose, monitor, and determine the severity of conditions such as:
Enhance your ability to accurately analyze EKG tracings for irregularities and deviations, a crucial skill for the NCLEX exam.
Identify heart conditions linked to electrical system disruptions caused by substances such as amphetamines, over-the-counter cold and allergy medications, beta blockers, and cocaine use.
Understand how to detect structural abnormalities that may indicate potential heart issues or congenital defects, such as chamber or wall enlargement.
Learn the art of EKG interpretation through an organized approach to make the process more simple for the NCLEX
