EKG vs ECG Corner

The complete EKG - SecondLook™ mobile app is a study aid for learners of the medical sciences to self-test their level of knowledge about this important diagnostic test, which is a standard tool in cardiac medicine. The complete app covers the basics of EKGs and their diagnostic value in the context of various cardiac pathologies, including arrhythmias, hypertrophies, infarctions, conductance aberrations and others. Specific diagnoses and applications are reviewed in a stepwise fashion including potential concerns and limitations.

ECG Corner offers a comprehensive collection of high-yield ECGs tailored for medical students, residents, cardiology fellows and physician assistants. Contents are segmented into three proficiency levels: Beginner, Intermediate, and Advanced, with an additional mixed-level option that combines all levels for a well-rounded practice experience. Cases are presented in the format of a question, diagnosis and rationale, accompanied by hyperlinked references and supplementary materials. Authors anticipate the addition of hundreds of more cases with time. The primary author, Ying Chi Yang, and co-author, Rezwan Munshi, are certified internists in American Board of Internal Medicine and currently cardiology fellows at Trinity Health-MercyOne North Iowa, USA. All the contents in the app were reviewed and revised by board-certified cardiac electrophysiologists: Michael Giudici (Ret. Professor, Cardiovascular medicine at the University of Iowa, USA) and Ketan Koranne, MD (FACC, FHRS).
