Accurate Diagnosis  By: DrJoe_Louie - Apr 6, 2009 Version: 3.1 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.
Satisfied!  By: Hunny Munkee - Apr 6, 2009 Version: 3.1 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.
Resident  By: Dr. B. Ayoub - Feb 2, 2009 Version: 3.0 Of course a 5 star application, and I would pay 25$ for it,
But one comment,
Please think about ARROWS on the EKGs to explain what u r describing, I think this is the best modification u can do to your one of a kind I phone ECG application.
Thanks a million for ur efforts :)
One last thing which is as important as ARROWs also is to >>>>>
add explanations in Quiz mode because some people will be interested in only the quiz mode, as it sticks to memory better than systematic review
Outstanding ECG Reference  By: Internal Med Resident - Jan 18, 2009 Version: 2.1 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.
Would definitely recommend  By: NY Doc - Jan 18, 2009 Version: 2.1 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.
Helpful app  By: DrPoe - Jan 16, 2009 Version: 2.1 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.
Great application  By: SalahAswan - Jan 1, 2009 Version: 1.0 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.
Awesome  By: The Grave - 23-Jun-2009 Version: 3.3 Best app I have ever purchased well worth the $. This is a quick study tool and is fantastic just to have as a refresher for those mind blanks. The new update is fantastic and has showen alot of dedication by the team. Hope to see more in the future. Get this app. I mean it this is a great app.
If I could make one suggestion that would be to add a search feature so you can find specific examples easier.
Excellent Resource!  By: bluesmokewhiteash - Jan 2, 2009 Version: 1.0 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.
Great stuff!  By: medicman2007 - 14-Sep-2009 Version: 3.5 A really great reference aid for all medical proffesionals.
ECG  By: Kwg71 - 02-Jan-2009 Version: 1.0 Great app. Good for ECG revision or on the go reference guide for nurses or doctors
Great Medical App  By: DertyLaxMaster - Oct 3, 2009 Version: 3.5 Simply outstanding. Great depth if content, EKG examples and App design. No pretty movies, but so what. Thank You. Thank You. Thank You.
Amazing  By: Killerforce - Sep 30, 2009 Version: 3.5 I took a peek and This is indeed an comprehensive app. I'm a student in college trying to work my way into md school.
Great and I love it!!!!!!!!  By: Lefts - Aug 26, 2009 Version: 3.5 I work on a cardiac telemetry floor where I am a tele tech. I seen this app before I even purchased my iPod. it has givenme more of an insight to more of the rythems that has come across my monitors. I have even had to show this to a Dr. to compair to a strip I got on one of his patients. updates are great. but the only thing I would like to see are more of the heart blocks. Great Job People !!!!
Outstanding!  By: Safety Comes First - Aug 10, 2009 Version: 3.5 Exactly what I was looking for - don't need to use a heavy text anymore, just The ECG Guide and my iPhone. Perfect resource for reviewing and expanding my knowledge of 12 lead ECGs. Tried the competing ECG app but couldn't get it to work - some sort of bug apparently. Stick with software from QxMD - they make a ton of free Apps which are of high quality.
Just what I was looking for..  By: Mawhkus - Aug 3, 2009 Version: 3.5 Fantastic App. - Perfect for learning EKG's or refreshing your memory.
Loving it  By: Docsmalltown - Jul 22, 2009 Version: 3.5 I have tried several apps by this company and they are great! Absolutely amazing content.
Great for the price...  By: yeiphone - May 28, 2009 Version: 3.3 The app was well crafted, but the icon seems to get lost in the original black iphone background, sound will make it perfect,other than that.....
