Program Overview

In the diagnosis of acute coronary syndromes, 12 Lead ECG results can lead to rapid, effective treatment. While blood work results – particularly Troponin - also support a diagnosis, the 12 Lead ECG is typically first to the mark, often by hours. When combined with a patient assessment and history, systematic 12 Lead ECG interpretation is key to timely intervention and optimal patient outcomes.

"At first glance, one might struggle to make meaning of the various ''wiggly'' ECG traces. However, Mike took his time to break down the entire lesson in a way every beginner would walk out feeling confident to take care of a patient in a telemetry unit. It is worth the time and money and I would recommend it to any health practitioner working in an acute health setting." - Godsway

"A good length of time for the content as it gave time to practice in order to solidify what we learned. Not sure that this course needs to change but I now that I have done this one I do want to do more, like the 12 lead ECG and clinical applications." - Debbie

Six Second ECG Essentials

"This is a very good introductory course. I liked the mix of didactic and actual practice with an expert on hand. The 3-step approach will be very handy. I would recommend this course to anyone regardless of skill level." - Sean

"This course reiterated the importance of correctly identifying what is wrong with the patient in order to perform the correct intervention (i.e., the difference between loops and leaks)." - Angela

12 Lead ECG & ACS

"As an ER RN I am often the first to review the EKG - and alert Physicians of any questionable ekgs. We often do ekgs on the non typical chest pains, so being able to id any potential issues is very important. I really needed to develop a more systematic approach to EKG's, I currently find myself "scattered" - I look for the key things but now I have a more systematic approach that I can implement in my practice. Time frame was decent." - Tanya

"the 3 simple steps can tell you where to look or where the issue is from. from that you can tell what you see with those steps" - Michael

SSECG Essentials

"This class was great. It was my second time taking it. I should have stuck with the 3 step process vs. the 10 step I had to learn from job. This makes the process of identifying the rhythm much easier and you are able to make sense of where the impulse is originating from." - Nika
