More About This Course

Hide Description

ECGedu.com’s Heart Rhythms Bundle gives you access to all of our arrhythmia courses. You will first learn normal and abnormal heart rhythm recognition, but supplement this knowledge with details about conduction system anatomy and physiology. Don’t just memorize what each rhythm looks like, but understand why they occur and why the ECG and telemetry machines see what they do. You will get access to these courses for 1 year at one low price.

Material Included:

  • Basic Arrhythmia Interpretation – Learn to recognize normal and abnormal heart rhythms with this short, simplified arrhythmia course.
  • Advanced Arrhythmia Interpretation – Takes your arrhythmia reading skills to the next level. Learn why and how the ECG machine sees these findings. Understand the anatomy and physiology behind arrhythmias. You won’t just memorize arrhythmias, but will also understand them.
  • ACLS Rhythm Course – All ACLS rhythms are covered in this interactive video. Watch a rhythm strip, identify the rhythm, and then watch and listen to the detailed explanation.

See each individual course for full details.

Basic Arrhythmia Interpretation - Determining the Heart Rate

This chapter shows several ways to determine the heart rate on an ECG or telemetry strip.

This chapter reviews sinus rhythms (rhythms that originate from the sinoatrial (SA) node). These include normal sinus rhythm, sinus bradycardia, and sinus tachycardia.

1:44
Basic Arrhythmia Interpretation - Junctional Rhythms

This chapter reviews junctional rhythms (rhythms that originate from the atrioventricular (AV) node). These include idiopathic junctional rhythm, junctional bradycardia, accelerated junctional rhythm, and junctional tachycardia.

3:53
Basic Arrhythmia Interpretation - Ventricular Rhythms

This chapter reviews ventricular rhythms (rhythms that originate from the ventricles). These include premature ventricular complexes (PVC), ventricular couplets, monomorphic ventricular tachycardia, polymorphic ventricular tachycardia, torsades de pointes (TdP), and ventricular fibrillation.

4:57
Basic Arrhythmia Interpretation - Atrial Rhythms

This chapter reviews atrial rhythms (rhythms that originate from the atria). These include premature atrial complexes (PAC), ectopic atrial rhythms, atrial bradycardia, atrial tachycardia, atrial flutter, atrial fibrillation, and multifocal atrial tachycardia.

7:50
Basic Arrhythmia Interpretation - Supraventricular Tachycardia (SVT)

This chapter reviews supraventricular tachycardia. specifically, it covers a fast rhythm that originates from the atrioventricular (AV) node.

1:19
Basic Arrhythmia Interpretation - Asystole and Agonal Rhythms

This chapter reviews asystole (no heart rhythm) and agonal rhythms (slow variable ventricular rhythms of a dying heart).

1:07
Basic Arrhythmia Interpretation - Pacemaker Rhythms

This chapter reviews pacemaker rhythms (rhythms that originate from a pacemaker). These include ventricular pacemaker rhythms and atrioventricular pacemaker rhythms.

2:11
Basic Arrhythmia Interpretation - ECG Artifacts

This video goes over possible artifacts seen on the ECG and rhythm strips.

3:19
Basic Arrhythmia Interpretation - Atrioventricular (AV) Blocks

This lesson goes over atrioventricular (AV) blocks. It covers first-degree AV blocks, second-degree AV blocks (Mobitz 1 [Wenkebach] and Mobitz 2), third-degree (complete) AV blocks, and 2:1 AV blocks

4:34
Basic Arrhythmia Interpretation - Serious vs. Non-serious Rhythms

This chapter briefly reviews which heart rhythms are serious and may need immediate medical attention, and which rhythms are overall benign.

1:58
Final Section for Credit

2. Advanced Arrhythmia Interpretation

ECG/Arrhythmia Fundamentals - Advanced Arrhythmia Interpretation Normal and Abnormal Heart Rhythms - Advanced Arrhythmia Interpretation
Naming Rhythms (AAI)

This chapter reviews how to name heart rhythms including those that originate from the sinus node, the atrioventricular node (junction), the ventricles, and the atria. It also reviews how to name the ventricular rates in patients with atrial fibrillation.

12:22
Sinus Rhythms and Sinus Blocks (AAI)

This chapter reviews sinus rhythms and sinoatrial exit blocks. Topics covered include normal sinus rhythm; sinus bradycardia; sinus tachycardia; sinus arrhythmia; sinus pauses; sinus arrest; and sinoatrial exit blocks.

8:36
Atrial Arrhythmias (AAI)

This chapter reviews the ECG criteria for atrial arrhythmias including premature atrial complexes (PACs/APCs); ectopic atrial rhythm; atrial bradycardia; atrial tachycardia; paroxysmal atrial tachycardia (PAT); multifocal atrial tachycardia (MAT); wandering atrial pacemaker; atrial flutter and atrial fibrillation.

14:29
Junctional Rhythms (AAI)

This chapter reviews the ECG criteria for junctional rhythms. These include idiopathic junctional rhythms, junctional bradycardia, accelerated junctional rhythm, junctional tachycardia, and brief descriptions of reentrant junctional rhythms (atrioventricular nodal reentrant tachycardia [AVNRT]; atrioventricular reentrant tachycardia [AVRT]).

5:22
Supraventricular Tachycardia (SVT) (AAI)

This chapter reviews the ECG changes associated with supraventricular tachycardia (SVT). It is divided into two parts. Part 1 gives brief definitions and descriptions of atrioventricular nodal reentrant tachycardia (AVNRT), and atrioventricular reentrant tachycardia (AVRT). Part 2 describes these in much more detail.

12:41
Ventricular Arrhythmias (AAI)

This chapter reviews the ECG criteria for ventricular arrhythmias including premature ventricular complexes (PVCs); fusion beats; idioventricular rhythms; accelerated idioventricular rhythms; ventricular tachycardia; ventricular flutter; ventricular fibrillation and torsades de pointes. Other topics include fusion beats, capture beats, interpolated PVCs, compensatory pauses, and non-compensatory pauses.

13:12
Ventricular Beats vs. Aberrancy (AAI)

This chapter reviews criteria for telling the difference between ventricular beats and supraventricular beats with aberrancy. Each criterion is detailed and several ECGs are used as examples.

Informative and easy to understand!

I had the pleasure of being lectured about electrocardiogram interpretation by Dr. Siegal during my cardiology training. Dr. Siegal captured these lectures in videos for self-education and training. They are informative and easy to understand in a field where ECG interpretations can be intimidating. I wish I had these videos during my medical school and training years.

Great visual examples

The videos are great for people who are visual and audio learners. They go at a pace that is easy to understand and there are good visual examples.

More confident

After completing this course, I feel more confident in ECG interpretation. While still a novice, I now have the necessary tools to practice with interpretation in the clinical setting.

Dr. Siegal shared his knowledge

"Dr. Siegal is a doctor's doctor. He has taken his clinical knowledge and experience and thankfully shared it with us in an informative and well written video."

Better serve patients

This course was well organized and detailed. I appreciated you beginning with the basics. Axis determination is still difficult and I plan to rewatch several of the videos, but overall, I have certainly gained valuable knowledge and tools to better serve my patients. Thank you.
