Rapid Interpretation of EKG's, Sixth Edition:Amazon:Books
The best way to learn to read an EKG is to understand physiologically what is happening inside the heart. This book breaks it all down very well.
ACLS is easy, their rhythms are covered in the ACLS manual book and are very straight forward. A good library of complicated rhythms is ekglibrary.com
Make sure you know how to read a 12 lead EKG as this gives you a bigger picture of what is going on.
Check you local hospital, they may have an EKG course.

I've been an RN for several years, but work as a Psych RN and currently Dept Manager. I really want to learn to read EKG strips so I can one day take an ACLS class and possibly get into ER nursing. Any good books or web sites for self learning? Any pointers? All info is greatly appreciated.
