Marriott's Practical Electrocardiography, 11th Edition

Galen S. Wagner / LWW / 978-0-7817-9738-2 / 488p / Softbound

 

The gold standard text on interpretation of ECG recordings is now in its revised Eleventh Edition. Coverage of arrhythmias—the largest portion of the book—has been thoroughly updated for this edition, and more than 400 new illustrations have been added.

The book is filled with ECG recordings, anatomical drawings, and dozens of tables, and has a reader-friendly design with strategic use of a second color. Glossaries at the end of each chapter reinforce new terms. For this edition, the author has created a more functional layout.

A bound-in CD-ROM includes animations correlated with ECGs.
