12-Lead ECG for Acute and Critical Care Providers PDF

I was actually fortunate enough to attend one of Mr. Page's "Multi-Lead Medic Courses." After attending his course and being blown away by what he had to say, I had to have his book. The book is just as advertised. It is great for providers with experience with 12-lead interpretation. The only draw back to the book is that it might be a little overwhelming for beginners. There is alot of info in their. I am a paramedic so most of use a just worried about identifying STEMI, this book goes way beyond that. My advise to beginners is to definately get this book, buy take it slow. Read and re-read every chapter and take your time with it.

I was in a panic. I had a 12-lead final exam coming up and wasn't comfortable with the intrepretations. I ordered this book and studied it for a week before the exam. My score: 105% (There was a five point extra credit question). I highly recommend this book.
