Systematic Approach to EKG and Interpretation for Step 2

Systematic Approach to EKG and Interpretation for Step 2

The EKG review provides information for anatomy and physiology, using a heart monitor, as well as identifying and interpreting EKG tracings including:

  • Sinus rhythms
  • Cardiac & pulmonary syndromes
  • Sinus node, atrial, junctional, and ventricular arrhythmias
  • AV conduction abnormalities
  • Pacemakers and ICD
  • Drug toxicities and side effects
  • Bundle Branch Blocks (BBB)
  • 3-lead, 5-lead, and 12-lead EKG tracings
  • Diagrams for electrode placement
  • Electrolyte imbalances & metabolic factors
  • Steps for commonly performed tests

Study abnormal EKG tracings for Step 2

Study abnormal EKG tracings
for Step 2

The EKG review discusses a step by step approach to rhythm interpretation to help diagnose and treat conditions such as:

  • -Congenital heart defects
  • -Coronary artery disease
  • -Heart attack
  • -Heart failure
  • -Heart murmurs
  • -Cardiomyopathy
  • -Pericarditis
  • -Cardiac arrhythmias

EKG patterns and cardiac structural abnormalities for Step 2

EKG patterns and cardiac structural abnormalities
for Step 2

Interpret EKG tracings for irregularities and abnormalities which is a core competency for Step 2 CK.

Study conditions caused by malfunctions in the heart’s electrical system from medication and drug use such as amphetamines, OTC cold and allergy meds, beta blockers, and cocaine.

Learn how to recognize structural abnormalities that provide clues to potential heart problems or defects.

EKG Book Content

Step 2 CK EKG Interpretation

Prepare for your exam with UMock EKG Review. Each chapter includes a
complete review of topics with a Q&A at the end of the book.

Sinus Rhythms
Learn how to identify features and qualifying criteria of sinus rhythms including normal, sinus bradycardia, sinus tachycardia, sinus dysrhythmia, sinus arrest, and sinus exit block.
Atrial Rhythms
Recognize complexes and rhythms for premature atrial complexes, wandering atrial pacemaker rhythm, multifocal atrial tachycardia, atrial flutter, and atrial fibrillation.
Junctional Rhythms
Identify features and criteria for premature junctional complexes, junctional escape beats, accelerated junctional rhythm, junctional tachycardia, and supraventricular tachycardia.
Heart Block Rhythms
Review the features and criteria for first degree heart block, second degree heart block type I, second degree heart block type II, and third degree/complete heart block.
Ventricular Rhythms
Identify features of ventricular rhythms including premature ventricular complexes, agonal rhythm, idioventricular and accelerated idioventricular rhythm, ventricular tachycardia, ventricular fibrillation, and asystole.
Pacemaker Rhythms
Learn how to recognize features of pacemaker rhythms including atrial and ventricular pacemaker rhythm, atrioventricular pacemaker rhythm, and failure to capture.
12-Lead ECG Axis
Review of which major coronary artery supports each area of the heart and learn the fundamentals of electrical axis determination and the presence of cardiac axis deviation.
Performing 12-Lead
Learn 12-lead EKG tracings which presents the electrical activity of the heart on two planes. Leads I, II, III, aVR, aVL, and aVF give a flat view of the heart from surrounding edges of a frontal plane.
Bundle Branch Block
Recognize the features for the presence of a complete left or right bundle branch block.
Left Ventricular Hypertrophy
Learn how to recall and apply the process for measurement to determine the presence of left ventricular hypertrophy.
Injury, Ischemia & Infarction
Review of the fundamentals and differences of indicative and reciprocal views, and recognize EKG changes caused by STEMI, ischemia, injury, and infarction.
EKG Terminology
Learn basic EKG terminology including PR interval, QRS complex, QT interval and ST interval.

"The EKG review from UMock covers every topic you need to learn in order to interpret tracings and diagnose and treat every possible condition you’ll be tested on during the Step 2 CK exam. "
