master ECG interpretation

Done: p57-62 (Conduction disturbances, Escape rhythms, ectopic beats)
Next: p63-71 (Identifying the cardiac rhythm)

Done: p52-56 VT & VF
Next: p57-62 (Conduction disturbances, Escape rhythms, ectopic beats) of ECG book

Done: p46-52 AV re-entrant tachycardias
Next: p52-56 VT & VF

Need to break this down in chunks to keep my interest up (and to make sense of it!)

Done: p43-46 Atrial fibrillation
Next: p46-52 AV re-entrant tachycardias

Done 1/3 of ch3 (it’s the biggie). Maybe next 1/3 tomorrow?

Done ch 2 of 17 (15 to go).

This next ch is about 40 pages though – eeek!

Done ch 1 of 17 (16 to go).

Near the end of 3rd year, I have been putting this off for waaaaaaaaaaaay too long.

I’m doing 4 weeks of cardiology, starting tomorrow, so this next month is my time for mastering ECG, because I fear if it doesn’t happen now, it ain’t gonna happen.

Armed with a copy of Making Sense of the ECG by Houghton and Gray, I have a plan. I am going to read this book, summarising it into a cheat-sheet at the same time.

After that I’ll use some of those online ECG quiz resources out there to see how my learning has gone.

I can do this, it just seems a bit overwhelming right now, but like every other goal, making a start somewhere and plugging away at it is the key!
