Features: Easy Application of ECG is a clinical reference book on electrocardiograms, demonstrating how ECGs play a role in the diagnosis and treatment of patients with cardiovascular disease symptoms. The book uses a completely new 12-lead ECG throughout, emphasizing the comprehensive presentation of ECGs. Each chapter begins with a brief description of the medical history and physical examination. The main text of the book has been fully revised, including treatment strategies after confirming abnormal ECG findings. "A great reference book for medical students and primary healthcare providers." — Cardiovascular Research
This book is the middle volume of a series and is based on the previous volume, Easy Learning of ECG. While the principles of ECGs are not complex, the variations in ECGs between normal individuals and patients with heart disease or other conditions make them appear more complicated than they actually are. This book comprehensively explains these variations and provides numerous examples for each type of abnormal ECG. It is suitable for readers with some basic knowledge of ECGs, aiming to maximize the use of ECGs as a clinical tool.
Regarding the overall importance of 12-lead ECGs, this edition remains consistent with previous versions, but most of the ECG examples in this edition are new and emphasize the comprehensive presentation of 12-lead ECGs, striving to authentically reproduce the practical application of ECGs in a small-format book. The book begins with a revised tutorial on Easy Learning of ECG as its chapter, expanding on the physiological and pathological mechanisms behind various ECG patterns.
