Clinical Electrocardiography: A Primary Care Approach

As Thomas Stern points out in his forward to the first edition of this book, the primary care physician is the "front-line cardiologist" and it is crucial that these doctors be proficient in ECG interpretation. Drs. Grauer and Curry have revised their popular Clinical Electrocardiology, a problem-solving, clinically-oriented, practical guide to the interpretation of 12-lead ECGs directed toward the non-specialist. This book includes normal variants that commonly enter into the diagnosis as well as technical mishaps. The reader becomes used to recognizing the types of dilemmas that the practising clinician is confronted with daily. Case studies correlate serial ECGs and clinical findings. The self-testing approach maximizes learning for the reader.
