ECG in primary care | EWS

Interpreting ECG is still a key skill for GP. We need to be comfortable in interpreting them and then deciding further steps in management. As GP's we need to be familiar with the normal variants and then be able to identify those rhythms that need referrals. These are key skills that help GP's practice safely and with confidence. It is important to avoid unnecessary referrals but also not to overlook findings that would need referral.
