Video Descriptions

ECG Heart Rate Simplified video

You will understand the RR interval, learn the different methods used to calculate the heart rate on the ECG and determine if a rhythm is regular or irregular. There are several ECG practice strips at the end to test your acquired knowledge.

QRS Complex Simplified video

You will learn the different components of the QRS complex, how to correctly label the QRS complex and how to analyze the QRS complex (QRS duration, QRS voltage, R wave progression and Q waves).

Cardiac Axis Simplified video

You will learn the normal cardiac axis, the different types of axis deviation, the key concepts behind the QRS axis and a simple approach to evaluating the cardiac axis.

Cardiac Conduction System Simplified video

You will learn the key components of the cardiac conduction system and the normal activation sequence of the heart.

ECG Leads Simplified video

You will learn what a lead represents, the relationship between a lead and the deflection on the ECG, the different types of frontal leads, why a lead is either unipolar or bipolar, the importance of the hexaxial frontal plane diagram and the relationship between the limb leads and the augmented leads.

Sinus Rhythm Simplified video

You will learn the proper definition of “sinus rhythm”, the difference between “sinus rhythm” and “normal sinus rhythm”, why “normal sinus rhythm” does not equate with a “normal” ECG. There are several ECG practice strips at the end to test your acquired knowledge.

Second Degree AV Block Simplified video

You will learn the key characteristics of type I second degree block (both the classic version and atypical version), type II second degree AV block, 2:1 second degree AV block, advanced second degree AV block and the differences between them. You will also learn the important pitfalls in the diagnosis of second degree AV block.
