For junior doctors, qualified nurses, paramedics and GPs who already understand the basics of the electrocardiogram (ECG), this reference guide will support diagnosis and treatment decisions.

The ECG Made Practical, Eighth Edition is a clinically-orientated book, showing how the ECG can help in the diagnosis and treatment of patients with symptoms suggesting cardiovascular disease. The underlying philosophy of this eighth edition remains that the ECG has to be interpreted in the light of the patient's history and physical examination, thus the book is organised in chapters according to a patient's symptoms.

Clinically-orientated with a quick reference list of cardiovascular conditions - ideal for use in the clinic Builds on the basic knowledge outlined in the classic The ECG Made Easy - an essential part of the mini-series Emphasises the individuality of every ECG and uses full 12-lead ECG recordings to provide a realistic reproduction of the clinical environment The unique page size allows presentation of 12-lead ECGs across a single page for clarity All ECGs taken from real patients from the authors’ clinical practice

In this edition we address the abundance of new ECG sources, especially wearable devices, by providing a new focus on how to use these traces and how best to spot artefact from abnormality New flow chart to aid interpretation and reporting
