Apart from the hearts mechanical function as a pump it also has an electrical system governing the rate at which the heart beats, controlling in turn how slow or fast the blood and oxygen gets pumped to all the organs and tissues in the body....

Chapter 12Teaching Visual: How to Interpret an Electrocardiogram Jessica L. Israel MD Objectives Develop a systematic approach to ECG interpretation. Create a narrative description of ECG findings. Apply this systematic approach and narrative description techniques to the interpretation of three commonly ...
ECG, orelectrocardiogram, is the recording of theelectrical activity of the heart. A single-lead reading is mainly for the detection of abnormal heart rhythms. The primary goal here is to detect atrial fibrillation (AFib), which can lead to stroke and other health complications. ...
With modern machines, surface ECGs are quick and easy to obtain at the bedside and are based on relatively simple electrophysiological concepts. However junior doctors often find them difficult to interpret. This is the first in a short series of articles that...

An alternative way is to interpret SbD as a specific strategy for risk management; for instance, by built-in safety assessments or addressing SbD measures. The third way is to understand SbD as a result of the design process and, more specifically, as the absence of risks when technology is...
Owing to a high mutation rate, mtDNA defects may occur at any nucleotide in its 16 569 bp sequence. Complete mtDNA sequencing may detect pathogenic mutations, which can be difficult to interpret because of normal ethnic/geographic-associated haplogroup variation. Our goal is to show how to ...
