Editorial Review: A practical learning book on the interpretation of ECGs for emergency physicians and staff. This will contain many examples of ECGs, randomly presented, each with a short history, and learning points. Two levels of difficulty make it useful at the basic and more senior levels. Three appendices will contain essential information aimed specially at emergency staff.

Rating: - Super ECG review!
Very good for brushing up and strengthening your knowledge on ECG's. There are some (minor) mistakes on certain interpretations, though, which is probably just due to first edition.
Rating: - ECGs for anyone serious about ECGs
Over the last few years, I've looked at quite a few references about ECGs. Mattu's book is certainly one of a kind. Split into two sections, each with 100 12-leads, the text begins subtly and works towards increasing difficulty and complexity of the strips.

Rating: - GREAT PRACTICE
I've worked with Dr. Amal Mattu in the ER here at University of Maryland, and let me tell you his EKG rounds are always excellent learning experiences be they at 2AM or noon. The same can be said of the book. As a resident in Internal Medicine I always want to look at more EKGs and this book is aimed at the professional who wants to see good examples of the common EKG findings, and also the rarer things such as Brugada syndrome. Each EKG is paired with a short vignette and the answers are in the back.
