 - Good, but could be much shorterDubin's book is not bad. The main text is not terribly high yield for studying for an exam in med school. The format is a little infuriating--too many pages containing trivial information that you're forced to flip through and skim. The useful information in this book, however, is really useful which makes this book somewhat worth reading. The summary/pocket guide that is included in the back is extremely high yield and that alone can be used in conjunction with the course materials/syllabi to get a good picture of typical EKG patterns and their pathophysiology. Rating:  - A BIG HELPThis interactive text was a big help to me. It breaks down the process of reading EKGs into simplified steps using graphics and easy to follow text. I would recommend this text to anyone just learning how to read EKGs or to anyone who finds it difficult. Rating: - Best EKG book ever!!!I always had a hard time understanding ekg's until this book. It is written like books you read in kindergarten. Rating: - ReviewI bought this book to use in PA school. It really simplifies EKG readings. I would recommend it for studying although I wouldn't bring it into a hospital or doctor's office during rotations...a little too simplified. Rating:  - Did not particularly like this bookI preferred the EKG WORKOUT book by JANE HUFF. The Dubin book...I don't know...I felt like I wasted my money. In association with Amazon.com | |
