Course Objectives The aim of this course is to provide students with the necessary knowledge and skills about conducting and interpreting 12-lead ECG analysis.
Learning Outcomes The students who succeeded in this course;
  • explain the heart conduction system,
  • explain waves in 12-lead ECG,
  • detect rhythm disturbances on ECG,
  • detect acute myocardial infarction on ECG,
  • determine blocks on ECG,
