ECGs by Example 3rd Edition

4.4 4.4 out of 5 stars 28 ratings
See all formats and editions

This unique book shows ECGs as they really appear in everyday practice and not in the usual format as presented in textbooks. Each of the 100 traces is accompanied by a list of the main diagnostic features along with a full report of the ECG, noting any other clinical details that may be important. Boxes list the common causes of the abnormalities shown. Key features of the ECG are reproduced again using annotations to guide the reader. Thus the book provides in itself a collection of full 12-lead ECGs of a wide range of common clinical problems encountered in casualty. This collection of traces, updated for this Third Edition with new cases, will be invaluable to all involved in the diagnosis of the most commonly encountered ECG abnormalities.

  • Provides full size and realistic reproduction of 12-lead ECGs

  • Includes a wide range of cardiac abnormalities

  • Highlights the diagnostic criteria for each abnormality listed

  • Reflects how this subject is encountered in practice

  • Assists the reader by illustrating alongside the key features of the recording; thus these can be viewed in relation to the whole trace
  • The Third Edition is spiral bound to make it easier for a reader to lay the ECG traces flat for study.
  • Several new cases are included plus a new section on the approach to the ECG has been added.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent example ECGs

Some of the definitions for findings are a little different than what I use, but it is nice to have a bunch of example ECGs all in one place.

ECGs by Example has a lot of good information on reading ECGs. This book has some valuable information on identification on some harder rhythms.

1.0 out of 5 stars nothing like the full page versions in the actual book
Reviewed in the United States on November 24, 2017
Verified Purchase
I have the hard copy of this book, but I wanted a Kindle version to read when I was away from home. The ecg tracings in the Kindle version are very small, nothing like the full page versions in the actual book, and when magnified are not very useful for interpretation because of the low resolution of the graphics. I feel like I wasted $40.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Most Useful ECG Book I have ever used
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on February 10, 2014
Verified Purchase
This ECG book is a revelation when it comes to understanding ECGs in actual practice. I knew the basics of ECG made easy before I bought this book, but ECGs on the ward are a world away from what you find in these books....and that's why ecgs by example is so wonderful. I never thought I'd be able to say with confidence that this ECG has left anterior hemiblock or that ECG has trifascular block....but turns out all you need is practice!!

Definitely recommend this book for postgraduate doctors - esp those in core medical training.

Excellent book , used by cardiac physiologists, health care scientists, associate practitioners and cardiographers. If your interested in cardiology this is very good for ECG analysis.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great book, a little too advanced for med students.
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on March 1, 2017
Verified Purchase
This book is really helpful, I always hated the process of learning ECGs and this actually made it ok. The only thing I would say is there are some very complex ECGs shown, so I think it's more appropriate for trainees in cardiology than for medical students as myself. I'd love it if it had a little bit more "straightforward" pathology and maybe a few extra explanations (it rarely offers info on management for the conditions it shows), but overall glad I bought it.

Excellent. As a GP I found this very useful for pattern recognition in recognising pathology and variations from normal. The book is well laid out and comes with clinical information and A4 size ECG's

This is a very comprehensive manual for both hospital medical and senior nursing staff. Easy to understand and it gives full explanations of each tracing and further treatment to correct abnormalities if appropriate.
