Beginning 12-leaD eCg inteRPRetation (1.2 CeUs)<br />
You understand the rhythm the patient is displaying on the monitor, but how do you<br />
interpret the 12-lead ECG? Is the chest pain significant enough to require thrombolytics<br />
or interventional cardiology? What ST segment abnormalities should I be looking for in a<br />
12-lead? What changes occur with electrolyte abnormalities and bundle branch blocks?<br />
This course will explore the beginning concepts of 12-lead ECG interpretation and enhance<br />
the learners understanding of this valuable tool. This interactive course includes lecture,<br />
group participation, and skill acquisition to facilitate the learning activity. Basic cardiac<br />
rhythm knowledge is a prerequisite to this course. Students should bring their own calipers<br />
for ECG exercises. In order to receive a certificate of successful completion for 7.0 contact<br />
hours, all attendees must sign the official registration form, attend the entire seminar,<br />
and turn in a completed evaluation form. Fee: $240<br />

laB inteRPRetation (.4 CeUs)<br />
Do you often struggle at understanding lab results? How do the results relate to the<br />
differential diagnosis and course of patient treatment? Interpretation of lab data is an<br />
essential skill required of nurses working in all practice settings. Through the review of<br />
physiology, pathophysiology and the application of critical thinking skills, you will be able<br />
to more easily appreciate how lab tests are integrated in patient care decisions. Applying<br />
this knowledge within the clinical setting will lead to improved patient care. Participants<br />
will receive a handout, including information detailing normal ranges, panic values, and<br />
the pathophysiologic basis of abnormal values. In order to receive a Certificate of Successful<br />
Completion for 4.0 contact hours, all attendees must sign the official registration form,<br />
participate in the entire seminar, take the pretest, pass a competency posttest with a<br />
minimum score of 84%, and turn in a completed evaluation form. Fee: $95<br />

BasiC eCg RHytHms (1.2 CeUs)<br />
Does your job require being able to read an ECG rhythm strip? Ever wondered what those<br />
squiggly lines mean on a monitor? Basic ECG Rhythms focuses on building your skill to<br />
identify normal and abnormal rhythms. This two-day class builds a foundation for basic<br />
ECG rhythm monitoring competence. Practical time is spent with students teaching rate<br />
and rhythm calculations to insure accurate learning. A pre-test and a competency posttest<br />
will be conducted to ensure learner accuracy. Clinicians who wish to strengthen their<br />
cardiac monitoring skills and those working in acute environments should investigate this<br />
course. In order to receive a Certificate of Successful Completion for 12.0 contact hours,<br />
all attendees must sign the official registration form, participate in the entire seminar,<br />
take the pretest, pass the competency posttest with 84%, and turn in a completed<br />
