Many books on ECG interpretation use simulated ECG tracings. Most of the traces that you find in this book are from real people and of the quality that you will be expected to interpret from in practice.

There is now a chapter on Wolff Parkinson White syndrome in this fourth edition, which in addition to the chapters on Hemiblocks, Bi Fascicular and Tri Fascicular Blocks and Paced Rhythms in the last edition make The ECG Workbook a very comprehensive resource for healthcare professionals and students.

All the additional chapters adhere to the principles followed set out in the first editions: that the text should be accessible and relevant to all practitioners, regardless of their experience and that the text should always be supported with relevant exercises to reinforce learning.
