Features: Most chapters include Q&A to provide self-learning courses, with explanations below the figures serving as the source of questions reflected in the legends. The additional materials in the appendix cover important topics for understanding arrhythmias, including ECG ladder diagrams, reentry, enhanced automaticity, concealed conduction, "second-degree AV block Mobitz type II rules," fusion beats, parallel rhythms, intraventricular differential conduction (Ashman phenomenon), His bundle studies, L-G-L syndrome, rate-dependent left bundle branch block, Wenckebach cycle of the sinus node, and a comparison between AV block and AV dissociation. Since the content is arranged progressively from simple to complex, readers are advised to start from the beginning of the book and follow the order systematically. The book is concise, richly illustrated, and provides a solid foundation for readers to quickly learn and analyze ECGs. The ECG examples selected for this book are as closely related to clinical and pathological correlations, cardiac catheterization, X-rays, and non-invasive techniques as possible. This also makes it easier for readers to understand the illustrations or textual explanations. The book is divided into three parts: Basic ECG, Self-Assessment, and Additional Materials in the Appendix.
