We offer a lot of tools covering EKG and cardiac abnormalities.  That’s for a couple of reasons:  
  • The heart is kinda the engine for the body
  • Understanding the heart well helps the rest of the system fall into place
Today’s cheatsheet is a 3 page PDF covering the most common heart rhythms.  Along with that, it outlines how to recognize the rhythm. Even if you don’t feel totally comfortable recognizing every heart rhythm, simply knowing what you are looking for and analyzing can really make a difference in your clinical assessment skills.
