Best ECG text?

Specialties Educators

Published

I will be teaching an advanced coronary care course, and want to get a new text. The students have already learned basic rhythm interpretation . I will be teaching 12 leads - MI's , BBB, SVT/VT, chamber enlargement, etc. Any ideas for a good text? I have looked on Amazon, and Garcia's "12 Lead ECGs: The Art of Intepretation" looks good, as does Grauer's "A Practical Guide to ECG Interpretation". Any comments on these books, or any other suggestions?

Thanks

Thaler's "EKG Book" is simply the best, IMHO:
