    The web can help, but check out the library. Depending on the level of interpretation expected of you, EKGs need to be measured. A book allows you can read them with the proper grids in place. I highly recommend Basic Arrhythmias by Gail Walraven. Inter-library loan is an option as well.

    The web is great is you just want examples of Afib, Vtach, and such, but if your struggling a good EKG good will do more for you than the web.

    Hey there,

    If you go to Notes on ICU Nursing and click on Arryhthmia Review, there is a really good, detailed attachment on all the different arrhythmia's.

    Hope this helps.
