InNetwork CME - EKG Made Easy! EKG for the Non-Cardiac Provider
Included in Plus and Premium Memberships!
This educational presentation designed to simplify electrocardiogram interpretation for clinicians outside of cardiology. It introduces the basics of cardiac conduction, lead placement, and axis interpretation, while guiding learners through rhythm identification, rate calculation, and recognition of common arrhythmias. The session highlights key diagnostic patterns such as AV blocks, atrial and ventricular arrhythmias, and ST-segment changes in acute coronary syndromes. With practical examples and clear explanations, it equips providers with foundational tools to confidently approach EKGs in clinical practice.
Learning Objectives
At the conclusion of this activity, participants should be able to:
- Understand the Basic Components of an EKG: Identify the key elements of an electrocardiogram, including waves, intervals, and segments
- Recognize Normal vs. Abnormal EKG Patterns: Distinguish between normal EKG findings and common abnormalities that require further evaluation
- Interpret Common Cardiac Rhythms: Develop the ability to interpret basic cardiac rhythms such as sinus rhythm, atrial fibrillation, and ventricular tachycardia
- Identify Life-Threatening EKG Findings: Learn to quickly spot critical EKG changes that may indicate life-threatening conditions, such as myocardial infarction
- Apply EKG Interpretation to Clinical Scenarios: Enhance decision-making skills by applying EKG interpretation to real-world patient cases relevant to non-cardiac specialties
