Book excerpt: A step-by-step guide to mastering recognition and interpretation of pediatric EKGs for pediatric nurses at all levels, physician assistants, residents, paramedics, medical students, and technicians. This time-tested publication has successfully trained numerous pediatric nurses from a leading children’s hospital. Pediatric advanced practice registered nurses and clinical nurse specialists working in acute or critical care settings, as well as physician assistants and medical residents, need to understand the principles of accurate pediatric EKG interpretation and the appropriate follow-up steps necessary for the best patient care. With a total of 100 EKGs, rhythm strips, and interpretations, this comprehensive but concise text analyzes all levels of arrhythmias to allow pediatric health care providers to interpret normal and abnormal pediatric EKGs and rhythm strips with confidence. This user-friendly, quick reference outlines the basic rules for pediatric arrhythmias and EKG interpretations using a multitude of different EKGs and rhythm strips and basic but critical figures and tables. With the use of a systematic checklist for standard evaluation, the text walks the reader through the essential signs that a health care provider must learn to recognize when examining the EKGs and rhythm strips of their pediatric patients. This book culminates in a robust selection of 50 EKGs and additional rhythm strips for practice and a self-test on the material presented in the preceding chapters. The answers can be compared with the cardiologist’s interpretations for reinforcement of understanding and application. Pediatric Arrhythmias and EKGss for the Health Care Provider teaches readers in a quick, at-a-glance approach: To obtain an interpretable pediatric tracing To implement a proper measurement method To understand both normal and abnormal EKGs To learn the quickest and most accurate QTc method To systematically use tables, diagrams, figures, and graphs for interpretation To interpret with confidence even very complicated tracings To know which tracings need a pediatric cardiologist’s attention

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pediatric arrhythmias present numerous challenges to pediatric cardiologists and other practitioners who see pediatric patients, including pediatricians, family physicians, emergency physicians, residents, fellows, and other clinicians. Arrhythmias in Children: A Case-Based Approach features practical methods for diagnosing and treating arrhythmias in these patients across all settings. Nearly three dozen real-world scenarios are presented, followed by a discussion of the diagnosis, clinical thinking process involved, treatment options, expected outcomes, and how to manage anticipated and unanticipated outcomes. These practical, realistic cases provide a unique and engaging way of approaching these challenging patient scenarios. Uses a case-based approach for a full spectrum of pediatric arrythmias in the newborn, child, pre-teen, and teenager. Presents history and physical, differential diagnoses, tests to order, and practical plans of action. Includes a section on arrythmias in special circumstances. Models clinical thinking skills for a wide number of real-world patient situations. Reviews pertinent clinical guidelines, treatment, and follow up.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Concise Guide to Pediatric Arrhythmias Written by one of the foremost pediatric cardiologists in the UK, this essential new book is a clear, practical, highly visual guide to the recognition of arrhythmias and their management. This innovative new reference: Covers the full range of arrhythmias encountered in pediatric patients Presents each arrhythmia – from identification to management options – as well as showing how to make a precise non-invasive diagnosis from the ECG Makes use of real ECG strips – not perfect redrawn examples – to show what readers will actually encounter in the clinical setting In addition, the book discusses arrhythmias encountered in various clinical settings – early and late after operation, and in congenital heart disease or cardiomyopathy – as well as brief overview of the use of invasive EP studies, catheter ablation, pacemakers and defibrillators. Whereas other books on this important topic are aimed and tailored for the needs of experts in pediatric cardiology, this book is ideal for pediatricians, pediatric intensivists, trainees in pediatrics, pediatric cardiology and pediatric intensive care, as well as for clinical support staff involved in the cardiac care of children.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Practical Management of Pediatric Cardiac Arrhythmias offers a useful source of current, practical information on the diagnosis and management of arrhythmias in children, and is intended for all caregivers, from novice to expert, who treat children, adolescents, and young adults with arrhythmias. It includes succinct information on implications for clinicians and patient and family considerations, with precise "how to" information regarding specific treatment modalities and management techniques. A feature unique to this book is an exploration of the nuances that make cardiac arrhythmias in this population different from those in adults. The editors and authors are all internationally recognized experts in the field, and each section is completely self-contained and can be used separately to solve a specific problem. Addressing itself to all healthcare professionals who deal with the increasing population of pediatric, adolescent, and young adult patients with arrhythmias, this book will prove a valuable asset to any healthcare provider working in the fields of cardiology, electrophysiology, and pediatrics.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pattern recognition is an important learning tool in the interpretation of ECGs. Unfortunately, until faced with a patient with an arrhythmia or structural heart disease, pediatric practitioners generally receive limited exposure to ECGs. The ability to clearly distinguish an abnormal ECG pattern from a normal variant in an emergency situation is an essential skill, but one that many pediatricians feel ill-prepared to utilize confidently. In Pediatric ECG Interpretation: An Illustrative Guide, Drs. Deal, Johnsrude and Buck aim to address this issue by illustrating many of the ECG patterns a pediatric practitioner is likely to encounter. ECG illustrations with interpretations are presented in several categories: normal children of all ages, acquired abnormalities such as hypertrophy or electrolyte disorders, and common congenital heart disease lesions. Later sections cover bradycardia, supraventricular and ventricular arrhythmias, and a basic section on pacemaker ECGs. Simple techniques used to interpret mechanisms of arrhythmias are described as a resource for practitioners in cardiology, adult electrophysiology, or pediatrics who may not have a readily accessible resource for these ECG examples. Material hosted at http://wiley.mpstechnologies.com/wiley/BOBContent/searchLPBobContent.do can be used: 1 as a self-evaluation tool for interpretation of ECGs 2 as a teaching reference for Cardiology fellows, residents, and house staff 3 as an invaluable resource for the Emergency Room physician or pediatrician who might obtain an ECG on a pediatric patient

This book was released on 1998-07-07 with total page 438 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a "reader friendly" resource which will provide a ready reference for diagnosis and management of both simple and complex cardiac rhythm disorders in infants and children. It will be beneficial not only for the specialists in pediatric cardiology but also for those specialists in pediatrics, internal medicine, adult cardiology, critical care and emergency medicine. The chapters on benign arrhythmias, syncope, long QT syndrome and pharmacological therapy will be of particular interest to the generalist. The specialist will find most helpful, the discussion of the newer managements of cardiac arrhythmias including radiofrequency catheter ablation and device therapy. Because the book is organized as a self-teaching tool, it is replete with electrocardiographic and electrophysiological tracings and, as such, will be advantageous to the students of this discipline. The chapters are authored by many authorities in the field of cardiac arrhythmias in children. This book provides a consolidated knowledge base with balanced discussion of methods of investigation and treatment from a diverse authorship which enhances objectivity and reduces institutional bias. This concise, single volume is a convenient, comprehensive resource for physicians and healthcare workers at all levels.
