:

Clues and criteria to assess for STEMI (STSegment Elevation Myocardial Infarction) vs other causes of ST elevation (pericarditis etc.).
A systematic approach to reading an ECG (rate, rhythm, axis, hypertrophy, ST changes, etc.)
Initial steps of STEMI treatment

:

EKG leads and vectors
Leads and EKG paper
The ECG tracing
EKG waves, complexes, and intervals (p waves, QRS complexes, PR interval etc.)
Axis on EKG and precordial leads
The autonomic nervous system and the heart
Heart rate and automaticity on the ECG
The R to R interval
Rhythm, arrhythmias, and escape rhythms,
Premature beats and pauses on EKG
Bigeminy, trigeminy, and tachyarrhythmias
Vtach and torsades de points
Atrial and ventricular flutter
WPW syndrome (WolffParkinsonWhite) and WPW pattern.
Atrial fibrillation and ventricular fibrillation on ECG
Heart blocks and escape rhythms (1st, 2nd, and 3rddegree heart block)
Bundle branch blocks, hemiblocks, and fascicular blocks
Hypertrophy (LVH) and atrial enlargement
COPD, PE, Hyperkalemia, Digoxin and the EKG
How to systematically read an EKG (and the appearance of a normal ECG).

MedCram = MORE understanding in LESS time

MedCram: Medical education topics explained clearly including: Respiratory lectures such as Asthma and COPD. Renal lectures on Acute Renal Failure and Adrenal Gland. Internal medicine videos on Oxygen Hemoglobin Dissociation Curve and Medical Acid Base. A growing library on critical care topics such as Shock, Diabetic Ketoacidosis (DKA), and Mechanical Ventilation. Cardiology videos on Hypertension, ECG / EKG Interpretation, and heart failure. VQ Mismatch and Hyponatremia lectures have been popular among medical students and physicians. The Pulmonary Function Tests (PFTs) videos and Ventilatorassociated pneumonia bundles and lectures have been particularly popular with RTs. NPs and PAs have given great feedback on Pneumonia Treatment and Liver Function Tests among many others. Dr. Jacquet teaches our FAST exam tutorial & bedside ultrasound courses. Many nursing students have found the Asthma and shock lectures very helpful. We're starting a new course series on clinical ultrasound/ultrasound medical imaging.

Recommended Audience Medical professionals and medical students: including physicians, nurse practitioners, physician assistants, nurses, respiratory therapists, EMT and paramedics, and many others. Review and test prep for USMLE, MCAT, PANCE, NCLEX, NAPLEX, NBDE, RN, RT, MD, DO, PA, NP school and board examinations.
