Abstract
This book focuses primarily on adult conditions. There are many books dedicated to the interpretation of paediatric ECGs. However the authors believe that it is appropriate to offer an introduction to the paediatric ECG, as this may benefit those professionals who work in areas, such as accident and emergency or pre hospital care that have to regularly deal with patients of all ages. In addition, an understanding of the development of the heart and the normal values for children may be of interest to those wishing to deepen their understanding in the field of cardiology.
