Accurate diagnosis of arrhythmias is the goal of this volume.
Before the clinician can accurately classify the multiple
permutations of cardiac rhythm encountered in daily practice,
several essential preconditions must be met. At the most basic
level, the clinician must know the diagnostic criteria for each
rhythm. Without a clear understanding of these criteria, an
accurate differential diagnosis is impossible, and without accurate
diagnosis, correct intervention is a mere matter of chance. A
second precondition of accurate rhythm diagnosis is an
understanding of the mechanism of arrhythmias. Not uncommonly, two
or more arrhythmic mechanisms coexist, confronting the clinician
with a baffling mixture of apparently unrelated complexes and
intervals. Without an understanding of the various arrhythmic
mechanisms, simple and complex, the tangled skein of data can never
be unraveled. Finally accurate arrhythmia diagnosis depends on
skill attained through practice. The competent electrocardiographer
combines the skills of precise measurement and rational application
of logic with broad theoretical knowledge. The pleasure of
electrocardiography is seeing through the surface appearance to the
inner workings. Interpretation of Cardiac Arrhythmias presupposes
no prior knowledge of arrhythmias, and progresses from basic to the
complex. The didactic sections focus extensively on the mechanism
of arrhythmia, using laddergrams and other diagramatic devices to
help the student visualize what is happening with the cardiac
conduction system. Extensive self-assessment sections enable
students to apply critical skills and test their grasp of the
diagnostic criteria.
