AHCS Basic 12-Lead EKG Course

The prerequisite for this course is a fundamental or Basic EKG class.

Course Description:

The Basic 12-lead EKG class is for the healthcare professional that already knows how to interpret EKG rhythms on a single lead view and wants to get introduced to the basic assessment capabilities the 12-lead EKG provides.

This course will provide a review of cardiac anatomy and physiology, the importance of proper lead placement, and how to recognize probable improper lead placement on a 12-lead strip. The course will cover axis deviations, atrial and ventricular enlargements, bundle branch blocks, and recognition of coronary artery occlusions that qualify as a STEMI.
