Default iPad app for EKG practice?

SDN Members don't see this ad. (About Ads)
Does anyone know of a good iPad app that I can use to practice reading EKGs? There are a bunch in the app store, but I was hoping that the med student community might know of one that has a good track record. Thanks!

I don't know of any specific apps, but I always check out Dr. Smith's EKG blog... he adds a new 12 lead every week with explanation. I have found it to be very helpful!

Google it

You'll find some nice apps


However, the QMd EKG app is nice but none of these walk you through the complex EKGs

Consider getting one of the EKG books (outside of Dubins)

I use 150 Practice EKGs and I have Chou's EKG book on hand for reference

Why not Dubins if you don't mind me asking?

Does he not do a good job explaining? Bad EKG pictures?

Are you asking? What does that have to do with it being a good EKG book?

Love this Dr. Smith's blog, really good, thorough case studies. Also check out the Harvard "Waven Maven" site. A ton of sample ekgs to read here.http://ecg.bidmc.harvard.edu/maven/mavenmain.asp
