Remember the basics. Read the EKG the same way each time. Is there a P wave? What's the PR interval? What's the rate? How wide is the QRS Complex? Is AVR an upside down mirror image of Lead II? When calculating rates quickly, use the technique of 300/150/100/75/60/50.

The EKG strip images below can be clicked onto and enlarged. You can then move through the strips as a slide presentation, pausing at your discretion. For additional review, students can go to our affiliate, Get Body Smart/Heart Physiology.
