Basic Arrhythmias With 12-Lead EKGs, 9th Edition by Gail Walraven – Paperback (ISBN: 9780138164959)

By Gail Walraven

Basic Arrhythmias With 12-Lead EKGs, 9th Edition by Gail Walraven is a practical electrocardiography textbook designed to build a strong foundation in basic arrhythmia interpretation and 12-lead EKG analysis. Published by Pearson, this edition supports step-by-step learning through clear explanations of cardiac electrophysiology, waves and measurements, rhythm analysis, common uncomplicated rhythms, and extensive EKG rhythm strip practice.

Designed for nursing programs, paramedic and EMT training, allied health programs, cardiovascular technology courses, medical assisting programs, hospital education departments, emergency medicine training, clinical skills labs, community colleges, university bookstores, and institutional procurement teams, this textbook supports structured instruction in EKG interpretation, rhythm recognition, cardiac monitoring, and foundational arrhythmia analysis.

What This Book Does

This book teaches students how to interpret basic arrhythmias by combining conceptual knowledge with repeated rhythm strip practice. It explains the electrical activity of the heart, the components of an EKG tracing, measurement methods, rhythm analysis steps, and the five major groups of arrhythmias. The 12-lead EKG coverage helps learners connect rhythm recognition with broader clinical electrocardiography skills.
