Rapid Interpretation of EKG's, Sixth Edition Editorial Review: YES! You have the right book!!
For thirty (30!) years the world's best seller (printed in 28 languages), RAPID INTERPRETATION OF EKG's is the most popular and most referenced of all EKG (ECG) texts. But beware... success breeds imitations.
Competitors, aware of its longstanding success, imitate this classic by using synonyms for RAPID or INTERPRETATION or by substituting "ECG's" for EKG's. Don't be deceived by the numerous look-alikes with enticing titles. There is only one RAPID INTERPRETATION OF EKG's.
Now it is the most current text of its kind, since it is updated yearly. Extensively illustrated and simplified to assure rapid comprehension, an entire chapter is easily consumed and mastered in a sitting. In the process of learning EKG interpretation, the reader gains a deeper understanding of cardiac physiology. Emphasis is on UNDERSTANDING rather than memorizing, so readers quickly acquire a lifetime of practical knowledge.
Customer Reviews: Good starting point Rapid Interpretation of EKG's, Sixth Edition
An excellent starting point for those who have trouble with ECGs. I use this book for most of my students. After teaching ACLS for over 15 years, I've found that ECG interpretation seems to intimidate students the most. The advantage of Dr. Dubin's book is that it assumes you know nothing to start. Granted, it's not the definitive text on ECG interpretation, rather a gentle introduction to ECGs. I have found that those students who start with more advanced texts fail to grasp some of the fundamentals which are well laid-out in this book. In addition, I find that nurses and paramedics with limited exposure to ECG interpretation can easily grasp the basics with this book.
Great! Received order in a reasonable time and in great condition. Would order again from seller.
Great book If you need to understand EKGs this is the book to get. It simplifies it and has great pictures that make sense. I would recommend to any med student or intern that never got a good teaching.
"The One" EKG book to own. This is the one EKG book you should own; I have heard more than a few EKG instructor state that this is the one book to have on the suject. Dr. Dubin's book is the most imformative and concise book on the subject; he literally makes you learn the information through footer information about key points, mental fill in the blanks with answers in the margin, and suggested review points with page numbers. If you read this book from cover to cover, you would be able to talk to a cardiologist with confidence. It also makes a great quick reference regarding all the key points of ECG.
great book great for nurses. easy to understand and teaches what is needed to on the job.
