The Cardiac Rhythms: A Systematic Approach to Interpretation

Proceeding from an elementary to intermediate level, this book offers a method for learning disorders of the heartbeat from an electrocardiogram. The user learns the dynamics of the autonomic nervous system; cardiac drugs are integrated throughout the text. This text has been virtually rewritten to accommodate the tremendous number of advances in cardiac arrhythmias. Rhythms caused by re-entrant mechanisms and electronic pacemaker rhythms are amongst the most heavily revised sections.
