For every physician that interprets ECGs, there is great need to understand a vast
amount of information regarding the technique. That the basics of the technique have
changed little over the last 100 years means that there is a huge amount of subtle
detail that must be learnt to enable its effective use as a diagnostic test. The ECG
technique is critical for deciding upon further diagnostic procedures and therapeutic
interventions (notably coronary angiography, PTCA, stenting, coronary artery bypass
grafting, pacemaker insertion, ablation, electroconversion etc). Without attaining the
skills to practice the ECG procedure and knowledge of its diagnostic value - skills
often overlooked during medical training - physicians will be unlikely to use it to
the benefit of their patients.
