Description

Building on this foundation, the course proceeds to ‘Getting a Rhythm Strip’, exploring the techniques for obtaining accurate ECG readings. It covers the practical aspects of patient preparation and placement of ECG leads, critical factors in ensuring clear, interpretable readings. The course then seamlessly transitions into ‘Interpreting Rhythm Strips’, providing an analytical approach to recognise and understand common rhythm abnormalities.

The Ecg Assessment And Interpretation Diploma then delves into the world of arrhythmias, offering comprehensive modules on Sinus Node, Atrial, Junctional, and Ventricular Arrhythmias. Here, learners will become well-versed in the identification and significance of various types of cardiac arrhythmias. The complex topic of Atrioventricular Blocks also gets thorough coverage, enlightening students on the nature and clinical implications of these conditions.

As an invaluable addition to the curriculum, ‘Treating Arrhythmias’ imparts knowledge of interventions, from medication to pacing and defibrillation. This essential knowledge completes the full circle of ECG interpretation, leading to appropriate and effective treatment strategies.

The pinnacle of the Ecg Assessment And Interpretation Diploma is the module on ‘Obtaining and Interpreting 12-lead ECG’. This vital section goes beyond basic rhythm strips to a full 12-lead ECG, expanding the learner’s proficiency in assessing and interpreting complex cardiac conditions.

Overall, the Ecg Assessment And Interpretation Diploma is a thorough and detailed course, designed for individuals who seek a robust understanding of electrocardiography. The online learning platform allows learners to interact, ask questions, and clarify doubts, fostering an engaging, productive learning environment.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
