Thank you so very much you own my life buddy i feel so emotional today
Amazing explanations! Super clear and easy to follow. Thank you for helping me build a solid foundation!
Finally a video that I can understand what's going on at the 12 leads!The explanations are real clear I love it !!!🥹🥹
"ECG made easy" perfect book to understand basics of 12-leads ekg
I am currently going to AEMT school and this is just perfect timing for me. Thank you!
Great explanation❤ bro thank you
Thank you so much. Best video and really clear easy to understand explanation. U are so talented
Thank you! Now I understand it.
You're really awesome...so many tips and tricks that are so important☺️....Love from India 🇮🇳❤️
I learned 2 different methods as a medic and as an ICU nurse. I always found the perpendicular method a tad bit more cumbersome by comparison. Instead, I use leads I and aVF to determine the axis by the mnemonic... RIGHT TOGETHER; LEFT APART. Right together meaning if lead I's deflection is mostly negative while aVF's deflection is mostly positive, per using the cartesian plane, it will let you know that the axis is somewhere between +90 and +180 degrees (R-waves pointing together or are RIGHT TOGETHER). Left together means if lead I's deflection is mostly positive while lead aVF is mostly negative, per the cartesian plane, the axis is somewhere between 0 and -90 degrees. And to differentiate between physiological (non-pathological) vs pathological left axis deviation, look at lead II, if it's mostly negative, your axis is an LAD, while if it s isoelectric, it is just at the border of -30 degrees (R-waves point apart, or are LEFT APART). Then again, it does require some retraining of how we traditionally view the cartesian plane as far as positive and negative is concerned, but that is what works for me.
Thank you
Amazing❤
soooooooo helpful!
Do the CE credits apply to CCRN?
So nice voice, imagine you are a very handsome man ❤
