Course
Description: |
|
This course is designed to provide the healthcare provider with a review of basic cardiac anatomy, physiology, and electrophysiology. The content includes heart structure and function, leads and waveforms, and ECG strip analysis.
"I highly recommend this course to any nursing professional who wishes to advance his or her clinical expertise."- James M. Rippe, MD, Cardiologist, Associate Professor of Medicine(Cardiology), Tufts University School of Medicine. Founder & Director, Rippe Health Assessment.

Upon completion of this study, participants will be able to
1. describe the anatomical structures and functions of the heart;
2. explore the process of electrical conduction in the heart;
3. recall the properties of cardiac depolarization and repolarization;
4. describe the relationship of each ECG waveform to the electrical events in the heart;
5. apply correct waveform measurement, rate calculation, and analysis techniques for interpreting an ECG strip; and
6. describe correct lead placement.
