‘ECG for the Anaesthetist’ is a must-have resource for postgraduate students preparing for their examination, and it aims to be an excellent and handy reference book for practising fellows. The manual is curated in a simplistic form and richly supplemented with explanatory diagrams to help the reader grasp the concepts. It intends to take the reader from the very basics of ECG to complex advanced topics in an effortless manner.
For ease of understanding, the book has been systematically subdivided into short chapters that make it easier to follows:
- Basics of ECG and waveform analysis.
- How to read an ECG presented to you in the table-viva.
- Conduction abnormalities.
- Cardiac arrhythmias.
- Management of the patient with abnormal ECG posted for non-cardiac surgery.
- ECG changes in Myocardial ischaemia, common electrolyte abnormalities, and other frequently asked topics like Brugada syndrome, pericarditis, pulmonary embolism, digoxin effect and hypothermia.
It has taken a tremendous effort on the part of the authors to compile all domains on ECG under a single title, and we hope that the readers will find the contents extremely valuable, especially for postgraduate-level examinations, including MD/ DNB anaesthesia/ EDAIC/ FRCA/ FCAI/ AMC.
