Review

"The book thoroughly reviews adult and pediatric electrocardiography with an emphasis on the clinical manifestations of disease and the scientific basis for the electrocardiogram. New chapters cover ICD and pacemaker tracings with expanded coverage on stress testing. New sections explore the rhythm problems associated with pediatric obesity, heart failure, and athletics. The authors have created a useful new edition that is an indispensable reference source for ECG principles and applications. It delivers clinically relevant guidance on all of today's electrocardiographic applications, provides many useful illustrations, and is full of sample ECGs." - Doody's ***

5.0 out of 5 stars A wonderful clinically oriented book, November 6, 2008
This review is from: Chou's Electrocardiography in Clinical Practice: Adult and Pediatric, 6e (Hardcover)
I am a second-year resident in internal medicine in Italy, and I have read many ECG books. This has soon become my reference. It is an advanced, complete, and very practical book: the pathophisiology and electrophisiology are limited to what is really needed to understand the clinical implications, and the ECG is appropriately considered to be only a part of the clinical investigation. The authors seems to be people that go around the wards, and not cardiologists who sit in their office reading ECGs without any contact with the real world. I have particularly appreciated two sections. The first is the one on ischemia, in which each ECG is completed with the description of the echocardiogram and the angiography of the same patient. The second is the one on electrolyte's and drug's effect on the ECG. I have always found this one to be a terrible subject, and I was surprised to find a well written and interesting chapter.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent for in-depth review of ECGs, September 25, 2009
This review is from: Chou's Electrocardiography in Clinical Practice: Adult and Pediatric, 6e (Hardcover)
The best book for in-depth interpretation of ECGs, most useful for cardiology fellows and cardiologists. Clinical and evidence-based correlations are well stated. EP correlations are well explained. Criteria for every ECG abnormality you may think of are very well detailed and clarified, with citation of clinical and epidemiologic studies.Better than MArriot's book. If you are looking for a summarized yet decent approach to ECG reading with nice ECG tests and examples, then "Cardiology handbook for clinicians" by Hanna (which also has a decent and thorough review of clinical cardiology), and "Complete ECG guide" by OKeefe are appropriate options.
