The Unofficial Guide to ECGs is a straightforward yet complete guide to interpreting ECGs and easily translating this knowledge to clinical contexts.
Edited by experts in cardiology, the book systematically goes through how an ECG is performed and what every part of the ECG tracing represents.

An extensive collection of 40 clinical cases with fully annotated ECGs and 120 MCQs are included to allow readers to practise ECG interpretation.
Primarily aimed at medical students, this new book will also be useful for all those who may need to brush up on ECGs, including junior doctors, nurses, paramedics, physicians' associates and advanced nurse practitioners.
Clearly defined and systematic structure that is accessible to new learners
Explanations for every component of an ECG tracing and their changes to aid understanding and memorisation
40 cases with real-life ECGs, ranging in difficulty from beginner to advanced, and clinically-focused questions for the reader to test themselves
Real-life fully annotated ECG images to clearly highlight features of ECG changes
120 MCQs with detailed explanations of correct and incorrect answers alongside annotated and unannotated ECGs
A handy quick reference guide at the end of book covers ECG basics and important changes for rapid revision on the wards
