EKG/ECG & Pharmacology Course

EKG/ECG & Pharmacology Classroom

Our EKG & Pharmacology class is designed to help the student memorize EKG rules. Memorizing ECG images will over-whelm the healthcare provider because no two people are the same and no two ECG strips are the same. Rules however will guide you to the correct ECG interpretation. This ECG class is an ideal solution for healthcare providers who are preparing to take ACLS or PALS, however, can also be used by anyone needing to learn ECG recognition skills and/or pharmacology.

According to the NCBI, the first electrocardiogram (ECG) from the intact human heart was recorded with a mercury capillary electrometer by Augustus Waller in May 1887 at St. Mary’s Hospital, London. This new invention will go on to revolutionize the medical industry. With heart disease being the leading cause of death in the United States, causing about 1 in 4 deaths. The value and importance of recognizing atypical, abnormal EKG findings is truly a lifesaver education. This ECG class is designed to prep you for ACLS and PALS training but most importantly will equip you with the correct knowledge to recognize, utilize and intervene for life ending arrythmias.
