Download or read book Strategies for ECG Arrhythmia Diagnosis written by George J Klein and published by Cardiotext Publishing. This book was released on 2016-05-01 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The ECG remains the cornerstone of arrhythmia diagnosis, even after an explosion of technology and rapid expansion of our understanding of arrhythmia mechanisms. While many traditional textbooks emphasize cataloguing arrhythmias and pattern recognition, this book by internationally recognized professor George J. Klein, MD, presents a universally applicable systematic approach to ECG arrhythmia diagnosis based on careful measurement and identification of key events and exploring their expected electrophysiological underpinnings. There is fundamentally no difference in the principles and strategies behind understanding the ECG and intracardiac tracings—both are absolutely complementary. Over 90 case studies with tracings in full landscape format are used to highlight important principles, with each case providing an important diagnostic “tip” or teaching point.A multiple-choice question is provided with each tracing not only to “frame the problem” for the reader but to provide some practice and strategies for answering cardiology board examination-type questions.An important book that paves the way to understanding ECGs when preparing for board or certification exams. The book is meant for serious students of arrhythmias, be they cardiology or electrophysiology trainees or established physicians.

Download or read book Electrophysiological Maneuvers for Arrhythmia Analysis written by George J. Klein MD and published by Cardiotext Publishing. This book was released on 2014-05-01 with total page 211 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From senior electrophysiologist and world-class educator George Klein, a fully illustrated guide with over 100 intracardiac tracings and figures that allow the physician to approach electrophysiologic problems effectively and systematically. The book is especially focused on electrophysiological maneuvers and provides a clear and understandable guide to their proper selection and interpretation using abundant clinical examples. Defines the integral role for "traditional" electrogram (EGM) analysis in order to understand the mechanism of a tachycardia. It goes without saying that a correct arrhythmia diagnosis is a prerequisite to catheter ablation regardless of the presence of sophisticated mapping and imaging technologies. Electrophysiological maneuvers are fundamental to this process, and proper selection and interpretation of maneuvers constitute a core skill of the electrophysiologist. In this volume, we make the case that most maneuvers are fundamentally similar in principle and can be understood by appreciating a few basic physiological and anatomical principles. The art lies not in a comprehensive knowledge by rote of every maneuver or its application, but rather a systematic approach using common principles. We illustrate this by showing abundant examples and emphasizing the "game plan," including checklists that can be applied to virtually any maneuver. —George J. Klein In my opinion, this book should be on the shelf of every electrophysiologist trainee as well as every clinical cardiac electrophysiologist. It is a classic, like its editor. Dr. Klein deserves high praise for organizing his and his colleagues’ clinical experiences and thought processes into a concise, practical text that should be part of all training programs in electrophysiology. —From the foreword by Mark E. Josephson, MD

Download or read book Interpretation of Cardiac Arrhythmias written by Zainul Abedin and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 577 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Accurate diagnosis of arrhythmias is the goal of this volume. Before the clinician can accurately classify the multiple permutations of cardiac rhythm encountered in daily practice, several essential preconditions must be met. At the most basic level, the clinician must know the diagnostic criteria for each rhythm. Without a clear understanding of these criteria, an accurate differential diagnosis is impossible, and without accurate diagnosis, correct intervention is a mere matter of chance. A second precondition of accurate rhythm diagnosis is an understanding of the mechanism of arrhythmias. Not uncommonly, two or more arrhythmic mechanisms coexist, confronting the clinician with a baffling mixture of apparently unrelated complexes and intervals. Without an understanding of the various arrhythmic mechanisms, simple and complex, the tangled skein of data can never be unraveled. Finally accurate arrhythmia diagnosis depends on skill attained through practice. The competent electrocardiographer combines the skills of precise measurement and rational application of logic with broad theoretical knowledge. The pleasure of electrocardiography is seeing through the surface appearance to the inner workings. Interpretation of Cardiac Arrhythmias presupposes no prior knowledge of arrhythmias, and progresses from basic to the complex. The didactic sections focus extensively on the mechanism of arrhythmia, using laddergrams and other diagramatic devices to help the student visualize what is happening with the cardiac conduction system. Extensive self-assessment sections enable students to apply critical skills and test their grasp of the diagnostic criteria.
