Electrocardiogram Interpretation Hybrid
This course is for RNs who care for adult patients undergoing cardiac monitoring. This course is a hybrid course and has two parts. Part A consists of two self-paced online modules. These modules cover measuring and interpreting common cardiac rhythms, including: sinus rhythms, atrial rhythms, junctional rhythms, ventricular rhythms, cardiac conduction blocks and pacemaker rhythms. Attendees will practice the measuring and interpretation of rhythms. Clinical assessment and nursing management will be reviewed for common dysrhythmias. Part B consists of an in-person exam, a score of ≥83% must be achieved to pass and complete the class and earn continuing education.
The online portion of this hybrid course is 80% of the total time commitment. The date and time for which you register for is when you will take the exit exam. The total time commitment for this course is 8 hours.
This course is exclusively open to UC Davis Health RNs. Other UC Davis Health employees can request approval from the course coordinators if it aligns with their job responsibilities.
