EXCELLENT website for reading ecg strips

This is awesome...thank you so much for posting this for all to enjoy and learn from. I know this will come in handy for my med-surg 2 class.

Excellent, what a great site thanks, have immediately added it to my favourites

Here's another one where you can actually set the heart to depolarize and watch the results. Our CI taught us with it, and it was amazingly helpful to visualize how the heart was working/corresponding with various ECG strips. You can even set infarcts.

It's free, public, with versions for Windows and Macs at ecgsim dot org I think. If that doesn't work, PM me and I'll find it. Really REALLY cool.:redpinkhe

Thanks. My cardiac exam is next week! Perfect timing...

a list of weblinks specifically for nursing students on how to read and interpret ekgs is at:

they were chosen because some were particularly easier than most to understand for the beginner.

You guys are all great!
I am starting again in March and was terrified of this part of it..... but now, I feel a bit more comfortable!
Thanks!

Can someone help me with this? This site looks excellent, but it is so tiny I can't read any of it. Did anyone else have trouble seeing it?

Thanks for the web site. I am starting cardiovascular next week. I went to the site hit tools and ECG stimulator, and the screen came up. The problem is the screen is so tiny I can't read the writing on the site. Can you tell me if there is a way to make the screen for the site bigger. I done everything I could but could not get it to change.

Thanks.
