About this book
Reviews
“The purpose is to provide up-to-date information about current electrocardiogram predictors for coronary heart disease morbidity and mortality. … The intended audience includes medical students, residents, fellows, general practitioners, and consultants. It is an excellent guide for any practitioner evaluating electrocardiograms. … The book is short and sweet, yet presents comprehensive and up-to-date information. Its specific focus on ECG gender differences in predicting the risk of adverse cardiac events is priceless for any clinician involved in reading and evaluating ECGs.” (Parham Parto, Doody's Book Reviews, June, 2015)
