Summary "ECG Interpretation for the Clinical Exercise Physiologist shows you how to accurately road and interpret ECGs. Moreover, because it's written for clinical exercise physiologists and exercise specialists, it addresses issues and concerns unique to stress testing and cardiac rehabilitation programs. Beginning with an introduction to basic concepts and measurements, the book explores rhythm and atrioventricular blocks, followed by discussions of such key topics as infarct, hypertrophy, axis, and conduction defects." "The two authors, a clinical exercise physiologist, and a cardiologist, offer an approach consistent with the ACSM's Knowledge, Skills, and Abilities (KSAs). Rather than rote memorization, they emphasize real-world case studies and knowledge-building activities that deepen your understanding and put your knowledge into practice."--BOOK JACKET
