Book Reviews of The The Only EKG Book You'll Ever Need (Board Review Series)

Book Review: very helpful to an MS2 or MS3
Summary: 5 Stars

There are 2 main ECG books med students use, Thaler's and Dubin's. Having seen the other and used this one primarily, I feel the Thaler text is by far better for second or third year med students. He covers all the main cardiac and extra-cardiac pathology that can be seen on the ECG and does so with very good explanations that you'll remember without having to feel like you're memorizing. His introductory chapter explaining how the ECG works is also excellent and allows you to understand what part of the heart each lead represents, again without any real memorization. After reading his chapter this stuff just makes sense. While certainly not at the level of a cardiology fellow, this book serves the niche of an introductory ECG text for med, PA, CRNA, or ARNP students quite well. As a bonus, Thaler has a pretty fun sense of humor that makes the reading much more amusing that you'd expect for an ECG book.
