Tom Kenny brings his down-to-earth style to this remarkable educational work that provides clinicians with illustrations, lists, tables, and lots of practical tips aimed at helping them navigate the sometimes complicated world of cardiac pacing.

Tom Kenny, a medical educator and long-time advocate for better cardiac pacing education and current Director of Education at PrepMD, wrote this book in order to:

Give clinicians a practical, realistic, easy-to-follow guide into the nuances of cardiac pacing—even if they have absolutely no background or experience in the field to start with
Provide an overview of the algorithms and devices offered by the world’s five pacemaker manufacturers (no other book offers this!)
Create a great reference book and go-to resource for busy clinicians who may already work in pacing but sometimes still have questions
Offer clinicians self-assessment tests and organized information to facilitate studying for various exams related to cardiac pacing and defibrillation
Shed some light (and illustrations) on cardiac pacing concepts, including some that confuse even the experts!

Full of info.

Great book. As a new pacemaker patient wanting to know more information to get my programming right for me. A very easy to read and understand. It doesn’t go into super depth on some topics but enough to give you some understanding.

Clear and understandable presentation of a complex subject!

Complex material in an extremely readable format. Well done. While I come from a computer background, I am not a medical practitioner at all and I found this book very helpful in understanding not only my husband's pacemaker but also the bigger picture of electrical conduction issues in the human heart.

Great resource to have. It breaks down difficult concepts into simple ones to understand. I am not afraid to deal with pacemakers anymore.

A very good mid-level book for RNs, PAs, and seriously geeky patients.

Inaccurate information

Reviewed in the United States on January 9, 2018

Verified Purchase

It would be great if it was accurate. Describing atrial fib as regularly irregular and other atrial arrhythmias as irregularly irregular (p54). Not understanding the duration in milliseconds and how it equates to the heart rate: specifically speaking to chapter 6 page 53. I could overlook all of the small grammatical errors, but now the content is not even accurate. Highly disappointed. I will be asking for a refund.
