Learn to Interpret Cardiac Arrhythmias in simple steps

Ratings: 3.46 / 5.00




Description

The course deals with Cardiac Arrhythmias in two parts. This is Part 1 of the course which deals with the Atrial and Ventricular Tachyarrhythmias.

All the arrhythmias have been dealt with in detail and the causes of the arrhythmias elaborated whenever needed. The ECG criteria for the diagnosis of complex arrhythmias like Ventricular Tachycardia have been explained in simple terms, easily understood by the learner.

Wherever needed diagrams have been provided and ECGs are also included for clarity.

Module 1. Classification of Arrhythmias, Arrhythmias arising from the Sinoatrial node,

Module 2. Atrial Premature Beats, Atrioventricular Nodal Reentrant Tachycardia, Atrioventricular Reentrant Tachycardia, Ectopic Atrial Tachycardia and Multifocal Atrial Tachycardia.

Module 3. Atrial Flutter and Atrial Fibrillation.

Module 4. Ventricular Premature Complexes and Ventricular Tachycardia.

Module 5. Ventricular Flutter, Ventricular Fibrillation, Polymorphic Ventricular Tachycardia and Torsade de Pointes.

Module 6. Escape Beats, Escape Rhythms, Accelerated Idiojunctional Rhythm and Accelerated Idioventricular Rhythm.
