The electrocardiograph or electrocardiogram or ECG/EKG is a non-invasive diagnostic procedure that is commonly used in a variety of healthcare settings to assess people with known or suspected heart disease. Competent recording, reading, and interpretation are critical for providing safe and effective care; however, ECGs are frequently performed by unqualified or junior staff who have received little training. This online course will teach you why an EKG test is so useful, as well as some clinical applications.
