Basic Arrhythmia Course

What will I learn?

Sharpen your healthcare skills with our Basic Arrhythmia Training Course, made for healthcare workers who want to become experts in reading ECGs and managing heart rhythm problems. You will learn how to spot things like slow heart rate (bradycardia), fast heart rate from the bottom chambers of the heart (ventricular tachycardia), and irregular heartbeats from the top chambers (atrial fibrillation) on ECGs. We will also break down ECG readings, including waveforms and lead placement. You will get better at writing clear patient notes that can stand up in court, following ethical guidelines, and talking to other healthcare workers. You'll also learn about medicines, lifestyle changes, and what to do right away to help patients, so you can give them the best care and plan for their follow-up appointments.
