Review
"For anyone who feels they are competent at reading twelve lead ECGs this would be good for sharpening your skills of diagnosis, or even as a refresher. I think this is the best read and best buy of John Hampton s three books on the ECG, the others being The ECG Made Easy and The ECG in Practice as the recordings are presented in random order and the readers interest should be maintained throughout. The tracings are all graded for difficult; medical student, house officer, paramedic or nurse, and MRCP standard. Each twelve lead ECG in this book has a case history, and the answers are brief but to the point; listing ECG features, clinical interpretation, and importantly What to do . With a minimal amount of text and plenty of recordings this is good value if you have grasped the basics as in The ECG Made Easy . This book will act as a handy pocket reference with its comprehensive index as all the recordings are cross referenced with The ECG Made Easy and The ECG in Practice . An enjoyable and challenging book for most health care workers."Review on Amazon.co.uk
electrocardiogram (ECG) can be a great leveller in medicine. It is common to see various combinations of medical students, nurses, junior doctors and specialists huddled around an ECG, debating what it shows. With his latest pocket sized text, John Hampton succeeds in further demystifying what in theory should be a relatively basic medical skill but in the real world sometimes proves to be quite the opposite.
One hundred ECGs are shown, each with a brief clinical vignette and a management question. On the next page salient features of the ECG are described, followed by a clinical interpretation and brief discussion about the management of the condition described. Each ECG abnormality is also cross referenced to the author s
well known previous texts The ECG made easy and The ECG in practice.

Product Description
This is a book of 150 12-lead ECGs and rhythm strips, each with a clinical case history and question. The full ECG is reproduced and a study of it with the case history should be enough to give an answer. On the back the case is examined, with a description of the main features of the ECG along with a clinical interpretation and a what to do section. The cases are graded in difficulty.

This book is excellent. The format of the book makes it very very easy to use. 150 full ECGs is a good number to include in a book and will keep you going for a while. The information presented in the answers will also help you to revise cardiology and you will make connections and learn useful information that you somehow just can't achieve from ploughing through Davidson's or Kumar.
I personally read the ECG in practice before using this book but i think it could easily be used having just read the ECG Made Easy in the same series by Hampton.
Many of my colleagues avoid this book because they flick through it and think it is too much for their level - its just anxiety -shake it off!
Once you get into this book you will find it very very rewarding. The mixture of ecgs is perfect for keeping up motivation and at times challenging even the best. By the end of the book you will be so much more confident at interpreting the ecg and much faster at it. Also i've found it to be like riding a bike - once you've got over the initial hurdle its very easy to maintain your skill level.
Acquire it and make use of Prof Hampton's wisdom. You will far outclass your colleagues.

Format:Paperback
This is an amazing ECG book, it gives clear concise case histories and clear 12-lead ECGS, then overleaf you are told the important features of the ECG, their meanings, the in hospital treatment recommended and the diagnosis. It contains relatively easy ECGs to more complex traces such as Dextrocardia.
This book is suitable for EMTs, Paramedics, Nurses, GPs and Hospital Doctors and Med students
