More About This Course

Hide Description

Practice ECGs and CME Course is great for providers who want to practice ECG interpretation and want Category 1 CME Credit. Each ECG is read in exactly the same way from start to finish. It follows the same step-by-step approach used by cardiologists and taught in the ECG Premium and Gold Courses. You get the opportunity to read the ECG yourself and then follow along with expert interpretation to make sure you didn’t miss a thing.

ECGs come from office and hospital patients. Each ECG is different.

There are 36 different ECGs in the archives. Each ECG video is about 10 minutes long. The material can be rewatched as many times as you want to help solidify the information. This course is accessible 24/7/65 on any device. Videos are succinct with detailed illustrations and audio descriptions that go at a gentle pace for better comprehension. The videos are set up to feel as if a cardiologist is giving you one-on-one instruction.

When you finish reading the ECG and listening to the explanation you will be given access to the attestation page. After attesting to watching the video, fill out a course evaluation and print your Category 1 CME certificate.

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.
