Satisfied! I found this app to be very useful whenever I come across a rhythm that I'm having some trouble interpreting. I'm an ER nurse and this has become a valuable tool for me. I highly recommend this app to those who work on the floor or in the field as a quick reference but of course people have to understand that interpreting an EKG rhythm strip is based on certain criterias; rate, regularity, length of PRI, QRS, etc. You don't just look at how the waves look like to categorize a rhythm. Even seasoned nurses make that mistake. Doctors too. You can show a rhythm strip to a bunch of docs and nurses and don't be surprised if each one of them has a different interpretation from each other. It takes a lot of practice to be able to identify rhythms. Like I said, it's good to have this app handy as a reference especially when you feel like you need to back up your interpretation of an EKG strip.

Accurate Diagnosis I've been using this app for several months now, and have been practising medicine as an MD for over 10 years. I haven't found a single ECG strip to be misdiagnosed. J.P. Deals, please point out a single strip that was misdiagnosed before anyone can truly trust your comments. Or perhaps you are the one who is misdiagnosing the rhythm. Please let us users know which samples you believe to be misdiagnosed and we will determine with whom the error lies. I have found this app to be very accurate, easy to use, and extremely helpful. I think everyone who analyzes ECGs should have this app.

Top app This has the most reference material of all the ECG apps, and the most samples. Easy choice. Great content and organization. I just wish it looked prettier, but even without that it's easy to use and the most useful app i've downloaded.Thanks for the hard work.

Great application This is a must have application for doctors, rsidents and medical students. I can now get rid of all the EKG cards I carry in my coat pocket. It is like having an entire EKG book with me at all times. It covers all the aspects of normal and abnormal EKG's in an organized and simple interface. Whoever designed this application put a lot of thought and time into it. Well worth the price. One thing I would like to see in an update would be a corrected QT calculator like the one included with the MedCalc application. But even without this minor add on, this is a five star application. - ECG Guide review by SalahAswan
Excellent Resource! I am a career RN working in a very busy emergency room/chest pain center and must interpret and manage patients with a wide range of rhythms. After purchasing and reviewing all the content, this application will prove to be a good supplemental resource for myself and will assist me in training new nurses. There is a decent range of rhythms, spot on content, and it is provided in a relatively simple layout and format. Vertical to horizontal transitions could be smoother though. Other improvements could include concise separate listing of the most common rhythms with examples so the user does not have to sort through the content. Thanks for a clean, accurate ECG guide for a fair price. - ECG Guide review by bluesmokewhiteash
Very Good Worth the money. An excellent reference tool. One suggestion: when I flip my phone for better view of the strips, it would be less of a distraction if the transition was smooth. It seems as if the screen gets "stuck" for a few seconds. - ECG Guide review by Pubbie
Excellent app This is a great app. Easy to use and logical. Great rhythm samples. Recommended. - ECG Guide review by Dr iPhoneDoc
Great App Its true what they say that you can't judge a book by its cover. I bought "instant ECG" first because frankly it looked better. Looks however as we all know can be deceiving. Its a good application but in my opinion is too basic for interns, residents or practicing physicians. The ECG Guide is much more complete. With that said, If it was only prettier you could take it home to mama. - ECG Guide review by QMD
Amazing medical app! This app is an indispensable tool! The layout is well thought out. Finding what I'm looking for is a breeze. And the sample ECGs!! I think i'm in heaven. They are great! There are plenty of them, well organized, all high quality. This is a must have app!! - ECG Guide review by Pheonix MD
Helpful app Excellent resource for medical students, residents, RNs, ECG techs and physicians. Includes a lot of real 12-lead ECGs for reference. Easy to use as a self-quiz for boards. I like that I can show my residents and medical students examples of common and uncommon disorders quickly on rounds. Good concise explanations and a ton of content packed into a reasonable file size and at a fair price. - ECG Guide review by DrPoe
Would definitely recommend Not sure what Arsenal is talking about. This is a great app. It has as much, if not more, information than a textbook, and it functions so much better. I can access the various ECG topics in an instant and they are well organized: everything is exactly where you'd expect it to be. The sample ECG rhythms can be manipulated and zoomed in on to see all the details. It's extremely easy to use. The huge database of sample ECGs will definitely help me in identifying ECGs. This is so much more than a textbook, and at only 5 dollars it's an amazing deal! It is easily worth more than double that amount. I would very highly recommend this. - ECG Guide review by NY Doc
Works great Works exactly as described. Easy to use and well organized. The best ECG app I've tried. Recommended. - ECG Guide review by Tre Jackson 99
Worth the $$$!! This is a great app. It has a huge database of high quality ECGs. The text is concise, yet very thorough. It is organized very well which makes finding what i'm looking for very fast and easy. And at less than 10mb, i can download it directly from my phone! Definitely recommended. - ECG Guide review by Howard J_123
Outstanding ECG Reference This is an outstanding ECG Reference. I learned ECGs as a 4th year med student and 1st year resident, but find that I need constant re-inforcement to solidify my knowledge. This is a great tool when I need to review diagnostic criteria or sample ECGs. I also like the quiz feature - really forces me to test my knowledge and seek detailed explanations when I make an error. I've been showing this to the med students and they've found it to be a useful way to start learning ECG interpretation. - ECG Guide review by Internal Med Resident
Not worth the money While the app has a lot of rhythms, the usability is terrible and the design is logical. Not worth the money. - ECG Guide review by HazelGroup
