5 Can't Miss EKGs with Jennifer Carlquist, PA-C
Recorded Webinar
This recorded program covers:
- Identify two high-risk findings that can kill young people. Learn why you should get an EKG any time a young patient presents with palpitations or syncope, and how to look for ticking time bombs.
- Differentiate STEMI from its mimics so you can determine when to treat and discharge, refer to primary care or cardiology, or rush to the ED.
- Decipher EKGs to spot warning signs and pathologic patterns (delta waves, biphasic waves, Wolff Parkinson White syndrome and more)
EKG interpretation is a high-risk/high-reward clinical activity. Get it wrong and patient outcomes could be disastrous, exposing your urgent care center to liability and hefty damage claims. Get it right and you avert disaster, prevent damage, save lives. The expectation is that you’ll get it right.
In this recorded webinar, Jennifer Carlquist, PA-C, will give you a process and practice for spotting 5 concerning arrhythmias you can’t afford to get wrong on EKGs. She’ll teach you to plot the patterns and read between the lines, so you make good catches instead of misses.
Why The Urgent Care EKG Course?
The Urgent Care EKG Course is designed to take the fear out of reading EKGs to boost clinician performance and confidence when patients present with common chief complaints. Your clinicians get the education they want and sorely need – a proven process and tried-and-true techniques for consistently and accurately reading EKGs –and you gain assurance knowing they are practicing at the top of their license. Better yet, you and your staff become empowered to improve outcomes for some of your sickest patients.
When your team becomes better at interpreting EKGs, that translates into many potential benefits for your center, including:
- Fewer unnecessary and/or unwarranted referrals to the ED = revenue
- More proficient staff = higher accuracy, improved outcomes
- More catches + fewer misses = less risk, lower liability
- Enhanced clinician confidence = higher job satisfaction, lower turnover
Additional Benefits of Ordering The Urgent Care EKG Course Include:
- A 10-step process for consistently and accurately reading EKGs
- Must-know patterns by chief complaints you see every day (chest pain, syncope, palpitations, weakness, dyspnea, and more), covering the full differential spectrum
- 17+ case studies to help clinicians catch life-threatening arrhythmias
- Engaging, easy-access video modules full of practical tips
- Can’t miss EKG findings, including indicators of the 5 "killer Bs"
