Summary Understanding and introduction to 12 lead ECG/EKG
This PowerPoint presentation is an introduction to EKG theory and an understanding of how to read a 12-lead electrocardiogram. I break down all 12 leads by their groups and what they analyze, the EKG paper and what it means, and all the timing intervals. You will learn how to identify STEMIs and special scenarios of inferior, posterior, and right-sided STEMIs. You will also learn multiple ways to identify axis deviation (heart shifts within the thorax) by looking at EKGs.
