Book Description
This guide to the proper use of the ECG in diagnosing acutemyocardial infarction puts the combined experience of internationalauthorities at your fingertips for immediate use. In The 12 LeadECG in ST Elevation MI: A Practical Approach for Clinicians,Drs. Bayés de Luna, Fiol-Sala and Antman supply the practical,specific information you need to determine which patients with ACSare showing ST elevation. To facilitate correct diagnosis and guide management, theauthors use a consistent sequence to explain the ECG abnormalitiesfor each site of coronary occlusion. A schematic of the coronarytree illustrates the point of occlusion. The second part of the book contains a self-assessment section witha series of 15 cases, each of which includes one or more 12-leadECGs for analysis. These valuable examples help you prepare foron-the-spot interpretation in the emergency department or intensivecare unit.

Book Description
This is a Pageburst digital textbook; This handy reference puts essential information at your fingertips! Pocket Reference for the 12-Lead ECG in Acute Coronary Syndromes, 3rd Edition helps you recognize ST segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) by introducing the 5-step approach to 12-lead analysis, making it faster and easier to learn 12-lead interpretation. Clear and concise, this book provides a simple, step-by-step approach along with tables, illustrations, and practice 12-lead ECGs to help you determine the likelihood of the presence of STEMI versus imposters or other causes of ST elevation. Written by two well-known educators, Tim Phalen, a paramedic, and Barbara J. Aehlert, a nurse, this pocket reference is available separately or as a package with its corresponding textbook, The 12-Lead ECG in Acute Coronary Syndromes Text, 3rd Edition. A clear, succinct, pocket-sized approach makes it easy to identify possible ST segment elevation myocardial infarction, determine the likelihood of the top STEMI imposters, and confidently categorize the ECG. Streamlined explanation of STEMI recognition includes an emphasis on STEMI imposters (non-infarct causes of ST elevation). Full-color illustrations clearly depict concepts and skills. Updated approach to ECG interpretation helps you determine STEMI versus other causes of ST elevation. NEW 5-step approach simplifies how to determine non-infarct causes of ST elevation, whether STEMI or STEMI imposter(s). NEW content in Suspecting STEMI chapter includes identifying the J-Point, determining ST elevation, Lead "Views," suspecting STEMI, and additional STEMI ECG changes. NEW content in STEMI Imposters chapter includes the top 5 STEMI imposters, ruling out the top STEMI imposters, and a 5-step analysis. NEW content in STEMI Imposters chapter includes the coronary artery anatomy, right ventricular infarction, posterior infarction, and obtaining additional leads. NEW Practice ECGs chapter is devoted to practicing the 5-step approach. NEW Practice ECGs chapter and 23 new 12-lead practice ECGs help you develop skills in 12-lead ECG recognition. NEW Key Point! boxes call attention to essential information.

Book Description
Simplify ECGs! Using an easy-to-understand, step-by-step approach and conversational tone, The 12-Lead ECG in Acute Coronary Syndromes, 4th Edition describes the process of 12-lead ECG interpretation for accurate recognition and effective treatment of ACS. This new edition has been streamlined to emphasize practice and explanation. It shows you how to determine the likelihood of ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) versus other causes of ST elevation. It covers innovative technology and evolving paradigms in ECG interpretation, such as the Cabrera format, which sequences impulse generation in a logical anatomic progression. In addition, over 100 practice ECGs—more than 25 of which are new—help test your knowledge. Written by two well-known educators—Tim Phalen, a paramedic, and Barbara Aehlert, an experienced nurse and popular ACLS instructor, this guide incorporates the latest American Heart Association Emergency Cardiac Care (ECC) Guidelines, as well as new research and information on recognizing and treating ACS in both hospital and prehospital environments. Updated Case studies promote early recognition and treatment of ACS. Outlines efficient strategies for identifying STEMI, allowing quick initiation of patient care. Contains more than 200 colorful illustrations, including a large number of ECGs. Offers practical advice for recognizing noninfarct causes of ST elevation, including left ventricular hypertrophy, bundle branch block, ventricular rhythms, benign early repolarization, and pericarditis. Features a lay-flat spiral binding, making the book easy to use in any setting. Chapter objectives help you identify key concepts Updated Consider This boxes highlight important tips. NEW! More than 100 practice ECGs offer plenty of opportunity to test your knowledge. NEW! Covers innovative technology and evolving paradigms in ECG interpretation. NEW! Review questions reinforce the content. NEW! Reorganized and simplified table of contents facilitates study and quick reference. NEW!
