imPULSE 4.0 - Level IV - Advanced ECG Rhythms

Course overview

Level IV of imPULSE 4.0 focuses on more advanced, less common, or complex ECG rhythms. Triaged as non-problematic, should be cautiously watched, or as volatile and potentially lethal, these categories help alert to the need for close monitoring. Rhythms are presented in groups by origination and we examine distinguishing waveform characteristics which identify specific abnormalities. Cardiac devices including various pacemaker types and pacing modes and implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICD) are discussed in a clear, simple manner along with indications, malfunctions, interventions, and associated rhythm strips. Rhythm reviews and frequent interactive rhythm-recognition check learning activities are provided to reinforce knowledge and competence.
