There are a few iPhone/iPad applications that have rhythm strips.

Do a Google-search ACLS. Good information online.

Here's a simulator:

Trt a good book. Dale Dubin's "Rapid Interpretation of EKG's" is a great book. It's a very easy to read and understand book that starts you with the very basic fundamentals and will work up to more advanced stuff that most of the experienced nurses won't know.

In the San Diego/Santee area Healthcare Occupations offers "Understanding Cardiac Arryhthmias" and has been around for over 14 years. Class is inexpensive, the book usual is more than class. No one learns without participation and this course provides interaction. BART is just a new acronym.

Upon completion of this course the participant will be able to:

- Systematically analyze and interpret rhythm strips

- Rapid identification of identification of sinus and atrial rhythms, junctional rhythms, ventricular rhythms and atrioventricular blocks

- Recognize cardiac pacing conditions, basic operation, artifact, sensing and capture, and recognize malfunctions

- Discuss the hemodynamic effects of selected dysrhyhmias

- Determine life threatening dysrhythmias and initiate interventions

-

Courses begin in August and January.

The telemetry techs on my unit recommended this site to me, it plays like a game and it helped me greatly to recognize arrhythmia's before taking ACLS.
