Acute coronary syndrome is the reason for over 1.5 million hospital visits each year. ECG recognition of injury and ischemia is a critical component to the early diagnosis and treatment of this cardiac emergency. This 60-minute webinar will focus on ECG patterns that represent injury and ischemia, and correlate these findings to the area of affected myocardium. Special emphasis will be placed on early and subtle changes, as well as complications associated with each type of myocardial infarction. Case study examples will be used to enhance learning. Sign up today for this information-packed webinar!
