Interpreting electrocardiograms in primary care | EWS

Interpreting electrocardiogram (ECG) results is a key skill for GP. We need to be comfortable in reading them and then deciding further steps in management. As GPs 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 GPs practice safely and with confidence. It is important to avoid unnecessary referrals but also not to overlook findings that would need referral.
