In the diagnosis of acute coronary syndromes, 12 Lead ECG results can lead to rapid, effective treatment. While blood work results – particularly Troponin - also support a diagnosis, the 12 Lead ECG is typically first to the mark, often by hours. When combined with a patient assessment and history, systematic 12 Lead ECG interpretation is key to timely intervention and optimal patient outcomes.

"Knowing how to quickly interpret an ECG rhythm and relate it to the symptoms a patient is experiencing is a huge skill I will take away from this course. This course gave me confidence to interpret rhythms without having to 'memorize' rhythms, and being able to truly understand the root cause, which will help me decide a course of treatment." - Ashneet (Feb 2023)

"This course reiterated the importance of correctly identifying what is wrong with the patient in order to perform the correct intervention (i.e., the difference between loops and leaks)." - Angela (Feb 2023)

"As an ER RN I am often the first to review the EKG - and alert Physicians of any questionable ekgs. We often do ekgs on the non typical chest pains, so being able to id any potential issues is very important. I really needed to develop a more systematic approach to EKG's, I currently find myself "scattered" - I look for the key things but now I have a more systematic approach that I can implement in my practice. Time frame was decent." - Tanya (Mar 2022)

"This class was great. It was my second time taking it. I should have stuck with the 3 step process vs. the 10 step I had to learn from job. This makes the process of identifying the rhythm much easier and you are able to make sense of where the impulse is originating from." - Nika (Feb 2022)

"I honestly didn't know what to expect. I've read the infamous orange book cover to cover and still didn't understand. Taking this course was an effort to help and hopefully make a huge part of my future career and little easier to understand when I start school. I am EVER so grateful for this course and for what I was able to learn...this course has definitely made things click! The simple steps toward reading EKGs was helpful and stick well. Very impressed by this course. I liked the small class size and engagement. I want all of my colleagues to take this course! I honestly wasn't sure how the online format would work but as someone who is an advocate for in person learning, this online format worked!" - Alia (Jan 2022)

"The part that resonated with me was being able to quickly recognize various rhythms and that the process always starts with evaluating your patient. It's really easy to focus on the heart monitor and not the patient so beginning with that as the first set of the process really helps." - Marcel (Sep 2021)
