Electrocardiography

As part of a three book series, this multi-touch book was created to provide students an interactive approach to the principles underlying electrocardiography, a diagnostic test that is used in the assessment of patients with cardiovascular and non-cardiovascular diseases. In this book, we have included a series of illustrations and animations designed to help students develop accurate mental images of the changes that occur in the electrical potentials (i.e., voltage) generated in heart muscle.
