 Great book April 7, 2008
If you need to understand EKGs this is the book to get. It simplifies it and has great pictures that make sense. I would recommend to any med student or intern that never got a good teaching.
"The One" EKG book to own. March 12, 2008
This is the one EKG book you should own; I have heard more than a few EKG instructor state that this is the one book to have on the suject. Dr. Dubin's book is the most imformative and concise book on the subject; he literally makes you learn the information through footer information about key points, mental fill in the blanks with answers in the margin, and suggested review points with page numbers. If you read this book from cover to cover, you would be able to talk to a cardiologist with confidence. It also makes a great quick reference regarding all the key points of ECG.
great book March 1, 2008
great for nurses. easy to understand and teaches what is needed to on the job.
Great book! February 29, 2008
I'm a student studying Kinesiology and Dubin's text is a refreshing change from the usual. He breaks concepts down quite well continuously reinforcing them and provides excellent accompanying images. If you need to understand EKG's, you need this book!
Extremely Readable February 25, 2008
It is very likely that if you are in the health care field, you or someone you know has this book, or has studied it a few times. Now in its sixth edition, it's been around quite a while (the basic principles have changed little in 30 years). I have to say, this book lives up to the hype as an educational tool. The author does a good job with USEFUL diagrams (and a lot of them are fun!), review questions and repetition with key points, giving you the basics without being too sketchy... he starts from the very beginning, how much time is in one of those little squares, and builds from there, covering rate, rhythm, vectors, and then goes into hypertrophy and infarctions/ischemia.
As a couple of small quibbles, he could expand the MI section a bit, it seems to be a little more rushed than some of the other areas. In addition, more practice EKGs would be nice, though there are other books and online stuff for that.
Highly recommended.
