Getting Started

Welcome to your first EXG tutorial on ECG interpretation. Each lesson comes with video tutorials that outline the main learning points of the session. After you have watched the videos, you can move on to the text based portion of the lessons where some of the topics are covered in more detail. Each section ends with a short quiz to help you consolidate your learning. Once you have completed all 6 lessons, you should move on to complete the end of block exam.

 

You can download a copy of the beginner's workbook here in different formats (.pages .docx or .PDF), and follow along with the lessons at home. We recommend that you print out each booklet, because it will allow you to draw on key points of the ECG that we discuss along the way.
