CVT 2500 - EKG Interpretation 3 hours Lecture, 3 credits Lower-Division College Credit Prerequisite(s): Acceptance into the Cardiovascular Technology Program. AA Elective: No This course relates electrophysiological principles of the EKG components to heart function. Students identify the individual components of the EKG complex and discuss the best lead placement for a diagnostic EKG versus lead placement for intra-procedural monitoring. After identifying rhythm rules, students differentiate between normal and abnormal rhythm strips and paced rhythms, in correlation with known pathologies. Students demonstrate the ability to identify heart rhythms and arrhythmias and gain the ability to set up a 12-lead EKG with interpretation of rhythm strips.
