Description
This course is a comprehensive investigation of the heart rhythm disturbances that
occur within the chambers and conducting tissue of the heart. The class is
partitioned into three modules that allow the systematic review of arrhythmias that
occur in the atria, AV junction and ventricles of the heart. The material is designed
to maximize understanding by analyzing electrocardiogram rhythm strips to
reinforce application of the theoretical component of the course. This course also
uses the application of these theories through laboratory experiences allowing
hands on experience with electrode placement and 12 lead ECG interpretations.
This is a 116 hour course with 16 hours of lab that includes lead placement and
strip identification and monitoring. 100 hours are theory and content.
