Cardiac help

Nursing Students Student Assist

I'm studying for my NCLEX, and I'm really bad with cardiac rhythms and EKG interpretation. Does anyone know of any online resources that I could use for studying (or, if this has already been discussed, point me in the direction of the thread)?

Thanks!

Esme12. icufaq's link is not evidenced based. I do think the material is well written but I do not share the link with my staff for the above reason.

I always enjoy your responses! Thanks for sharing

It's great to hear what others think. I like it. It is simple concise and clear. I am not clear what you mean by "evidence based". A PR interval is a PR interval. V Tach is well....V Tach. I find the information there is factual and accurate. It is old....2005 and some interventions are out dated. I refrain from using that resource for those things....but V Tach has looked like V Tach for the last 35 years. A PA line is a PA line the pathophysiology is the same now as it was 35 years ago.
