The book “ECG Made Easy” is a humble attempt to deliver the subject of ECG in a simple and concise form to the hearts of students and clinicians. ECG diagnosis, causation of abnormalities and their clinical relevance are mentioned briefly in the following chapters. The initial chapters that are included explain about the nomenclature of ECG deflections, electrocardiographic leads, ECG grid and normal values, determination of electrical axis, etc. The chapter six onwards explains in detail on the abnormalities of the P wave, QRS complex, T wave, U wave, P-R segment, S-T segment, P-R interval and Q-T interval. The other chapters include premature beats in regular rhythm, pauses during regular rhythm, fast regular rhythm with narrow QRS, normal regular rhythm with narrow QRS, etc. The last few chapters are based on the normal regular rhythm with wide QRS, fast irregular rhythm with bizarre QRS, slow regular rhythm with narrow QRS, slow irregular rhythm with narrow QRS and slow regular rhythm with wide QRS. The clinical challenge is mainly on understanding the cause of an arrhythmia, its significance, diagnosis and the practical aspects of management. The cardiac rhythms are discussed in brief.
