Insights into Electrocardiograms with MCQs
By Sitaram Mittal
The present is bundled with several unique features. It provides up-to-date information on electrocardiograms for almost all electrocardiographic abnormalities covers all aspects of surface electrocardiography in detail. Summaries follow all book chapters for quick revision and MCQs for self-assessment. This book will be helpful to clinicians, fellows in medicine preparing for different careers in cardiology, and ECG technicians and their teachers.The purpose of writing this book – While teaching undergraduates, postgraduates in general medicine, and students of diploma course in cardiac instrument technology, I realized that the students did not have the knowledge of basic concepts of electrocardiography and did not know the clinical significance of various abnormalities. Students, therefore, felt that the subject was difficult to understand and of no clinical significance. Students, therefore, did not feel interested. There was a need for a book that could simplify the subject to the ground level for a beginner who does not know even the basics of electrocardiography. Most of the books in this field are targeted towards cardiologists with an understanding that the reader already has enough knowledge of the basic concepts of electrocardiography. MCQs are the cornerstone for learning, teaching, and evaluation. None of the books in the market gives the idea of MCQs in electrocardiography. What problem does this book solve for the readers? – This book explains various normal and abnormal findings with the help of diagrams and illustrative electrocardiograms. Clinical implications of multiple abnormalities are discussed. This makes the subject easy to understand and to interest for a beginner. MCQs will help the readers in self-assessment. MCQs will also help teachers and examiners in evaluating the students.
Introducing “Electrocardiography Made Easy” by Sitaram Mittal – the beginner’s guide to understanding electrocardiograms. With a focus on providing up-to-date information on electrocardiographic abnormalities and covering all aspects of surface electrocardiography in detail, this book is an invaluable resource for clinicians, fellows in medicine preparing for a career in cardiology, and ECG technicians and their teachers.
The book is written with a clear goal in mind – to simplify the subject of electrocardiography for beginners who may not have prior knowledge of the basics. The author has identified the lack of books in this field that are accessible to readers at ground level, without prior knowledge of the subject matter. In response, “Electrocardiography Made Easy” is written in a way that is easy to understand and of clinical significance, empowering the reader to feel more interested and engaged in the subject.
One of the hallmarks of this book is the use of diagrams and illustrative electrocardiograms to explain various normal and abnormal findings. This goes a long way in making the subject matter more accessible, particularly for those who are not already familiar with the technical language used in ECGs. With a focus on clinical implications of multiple abnormalities, the book provides readers with a greater depth of understanding and helps build confidence in interpreting ECGs.
Importantly, the book also contains summaries at the end of each chapter, making it easy for readers to quickly revise the material covered. Additionally, readers can test their knowledge with the inclusion of multiple-choice questions (MCQs) for self-assessment.
MCQs are a cornerstone for learning, teaching, and evaluation, and yet a rare feature in books on electrocardiography. With “Electrocardiography Made Easy”, readers can engage with MCQs to self-evaluate, while teachers and examiners have a valuable resource to evaluate their students.
Overall, “Electrocardiography Made Easy” is a valuable resource for anyone seeking to understand electrocardiograms, from those entirely new to the subject matter to those looking to build on their existing knowledge. With its accessibility, clarity, and practical applications, this book is an essential resource for anyone dealing with electrocardiographic abnormalities.
In summary, ordering “Electrocardiography Made Easy” is a must for anyone looking to improve their knowledge of electrocardiography. This book provides a comprehensive guide to understanding ECGs and is written with a clear goal in mind – to make the subject more accessible for beginners. Plus, with the inclusion of MCQs and summaries, readers can test their knowledge and revise the material covered at their own pace. So, if you’re looking to build your understanding of electrocardiography, this book is a must-have.
