Basic Dysrhythmias Interactive (CD-ROM)

This interactive tool includes the latest edition of the entire text of the same name and expands on it with a wealth of engaging features such as "click and drag" questions, multiple choice questions, moving animations, and more! An abundance of art from the print edition illustrates the vital concepts and an interactive glossary features a spoken pronunciation guide. With this tool, users will learn to master ECGs from initial patient assessment to the treatment of complex conditions. Like the print edition, the CD presents information in a logical process, with the components of an ECG explained first, followed by interpretation information and more complex guidance on how to take and read an ECG, and wrapping up with advanced content. Includes more than 250 interactive practice rhythm strips that provide hands-on, true-to-life practice for basic dysrhythmia interpretation and 12-lead. Moving animations of "live" ECGS and beating hearts give students a true-to-life experience. Features a 1,000-question self-assessment along with click-and-drag review exercises. The glossary features a wealth of illustrations that aid in comprehension and retention. The text is clear, well written, and well organized by a medical professional with over 20 years' experience. All material is compliant with the 2000 ECC guidelines. Presents complete coverage of I, II, II, MCL1 and 6, and 12-lead ECGs, as well as the most current pharmacologic interventions. Offers detailed coverage of thrombosis formation, treatment and management. Users can customize their notes and print them for study.Robert J.
