Hi, I’m Will!
In 2014, I starting working as a new nurse on a telemetry floor – you know, the one with all the cardiac monitors! I felt so underprepared and I had so many patients on cardiac monitors.
Like many other new grads, I wasn’t super great at interpreting the complex patterns of ECG rhythm strips accurately.
I knew I had to learn, and fast.
During work shifts, I’d be too busy taking care of my patients to do too much studying, but in my free time I would immersed myself in books, courses, and tutorials about understanding and identifying ECG rhythms.
I analyzed countless rhythm strips, from atrial fibrillations to ventricular tachycardias, from sinus rhythms to complex heart blocks.
And then, the “aha” moment! The more I studied, the clearer the patterns became. I realized that with the right guidance and persistence, anyone could master these rhythms.
From that point on, I committed myself to simplifying ECG rhythm interpretation. The results? I became the go-to person for rhythm assessments in my department.
I know it might seem overwhelming, especially if you’ve struggled with ECG rhythms before. But trust me, once you know the secrets, it’s like unlocking a new world.
My course isn’t just about the knowledge I’ve gained, but it’s about giving you the practical tools to interpret rhythms with ease and confidence.
Now, I won’t say everyone will become an expert overnight. But my aim is to provide the most comprehensive and intuitive ECG education available, giving you the tools you need to be a rockstar go-to person for cardiac arrhythmias and their management!
The Proven Pathway to Mastering ECG Rhythms with Ease
Anyone can watch an ECG demonstration or go through a few rhythms on a simulator.
But truly understanding and accurately interpreting those rhythms? That requires a deeper understanding and a structured approach.
The formula is straightforward:
- Begin with foundational knowledge of the heart’s electrical activity.
- Dive deep into common rhythms and their clinical significance.
- Engage in practice with rhythm strips from EVERY cardiac arrhythmia.
- Consistently revise and challenge yourself with complex cases.
- Get better and better at rhythm interpretation!
With dedication and the right guidance, I can confidently say you’ll master ECG rhythms and make a significant difference in patient care.
Why do so many nurses fail to master this skill?
It’s an alarming fact that many healthcare professionals lack confidence in their ECG interpretation skills, which could impact patient care.
Common pitfalls include:
- Focusing solely on textbook rhythms and ignoring real-world variations.
- Not seeking hands-on practice.
- Not staying updated with the latest guidelines.
- Giving up after a few misinterpretations.
- Assuming it’s too complex and settling for surface knowledge.
- Not connecting rhythms to clinical implications.
- Trying to learn in isolation.
- Relying on outdated methods or oversimplified apps.
Considering these challenges, it’s not surprising that many struggle!
While you could navigate this journey alone, it’s a challenging path. My background as a nurse and later a nurse practitioner in the ER and inpatient settings allowed me a unique insight, bridging the gap between theory and practice.
Many who try to learn it alone still lack confidence in critical scenarios.
You could try to figure it out on your own…

"This course is user-friendly and aesthetically pleasing. It is simple to follow and information is provided in clear terms. I am pleased that the information is provided via text, images, and audio… The education is provided in a clear easy way and makes it more enjoyable to study compared to reading a 300+ page textbook!"
“Just finished the course and all I can say is it was great. The videos are super clear and straight to the point - I loved the visuals! I also liked the PDF chapters that I printed off which made it super easy to digest the info. Great job man - would def recommend!”
“I ‘thought’ I felt confident with a basic ECG… I was not as confident as I thought. After the course, which I went through a couple of times by choice, I feel a truly earned confidence. Just. Do it. Go. For. It! You will NOT be sorry. Aside from the rhythm practice, the explanations and memory tools are well worth it alone!”
