Full Description
Basic Arrhythmias, Seventh Edition gives beginning students a strong basic understanding of the common, uncomplicated rhythms that are a foundation for further learning and success in electrocardiography. The first eight chapters, which can be used as self-instruction, cover basic electrophysiology, waves and measurements, rhythm analysis, and the five major groups of arrhythmias. Basic Arrthymias then introduces cardiac anatomy, clinical manifestations, 12-lead electrocardiography, and cardiac pacemakers. This new Seventh Edition program features mybradykit, an online site providing extensive study resources, learning tools, and interactive exercises. An access code to mybradykit is provided in the front of the text. This package contains: * Walraven, Basic Arrhythmias, 7/E (2011) * Pearson, Limmer, Mistovich & Werman, Resource Central EMS -- Access Card (2012)
