The Nurse's Guide to Cardiac Rhythm Interpretation Implications for Patient Care - illustrated - London W.B. Saunders, 1998 Original from the University of Michigan Digitized 8 Aug 2008 - 336 pages
This unique resource provides clear, concise explanations of the conduction patterns that result in the electrophysiologic tracing seen on the electrocardiogram (ECG). It covers basic and advanced dysrhythmia concepts, as well as the nursing implications for each rhythm.
Explains basic and advanced telemetric monitoring techniques to ensure appropriate interpretation and diagnosis of complex rhythms.
Discusses the emergency treatment of life-threatening arrhythmias.
Features today's most comprehensive coverage of pediatric rhythms, including a table of antidysrhythmic drugs used for the treatment of tachycardia in children, that displays doses, indications, and nursing implications.
Provides a broad perspective on the etiologies of cardiac rhythm disturbances, discussing laboratory data, interactions on pharmacologic agents, and hemodynamic effects.
Details how to choose the appropriate monitoring format, develop and implement monitoring systems, and measure quality improvement.
Helps readers to exercise their comprehension with practice ECG strips at the end of each chapter.
Presents case studies that allow readers to apply essential concepts and skills within actual patient scenarios.
Clarifies important concepts with anatomical diagrams, drug charts, electrocardiograms, chapter objectives and review questions.
