This electrocardiology (ECG) course is designed for those who are new in ECGs. After this course you should be able to interprete ECGs in a systematic way.

This course was originally started in Dutch, but will be translated over the next months:


The ECG course

  • Basics: What is an ECG? How is it made?

===The Normal ECG=== (translation in progress)

  • 7+2 step plan to a complete interpretation of the normal ECG
  1. Rhythm
  2. Frequency
  3. Conduction (PQ,QRS,QT)
  4. Heart axis
  5. P wave morphology
  6. QRS morphology
  7. ST morphology
  1. compare the old and new ECG
  2. conclusion

The Abnormal ECG

The Real world
