By Linda Ruiz


Online courses enable health care providers to keep up to date and keep improving their education. An online arrhythmia interpretation course is one of these that may be helpful to physicians, monitor techs and many others. The objective of such a course is to become familiar with basic arrhythmias and be able to recognize them.

The content of such courses varies and it is important to find one offered by those with the necessary experience and credentials. Other factors that can influence choice are the cost, length and the methods used for teaching and evaluating progress. Everyone learns in a different way and what suits one person may not suit another. There are many excellent learning platforms available with creative learning techniques and visual aids.

The content of these courses is designed to give students a familiarity with the key features of selected arrhythmias. A systematic approach is usually demonstrated in interpreting of selected rhythm strips. The causes, symptoms and consequences of arrhythmias are outlined as well as the nursing and medical responsibilities of selected arrhythmias. Access is usually allowed to one of the lessons before signing up so one can see how material is organized.

The length of such courses vary according to the amount of content covered and the experience level of the students. For example, some are specifically designed for nurses with some prior knowledge. One of the benefits of such courses is that they are self-paced. This means that students can go more quickly or slowly, depending on how easily they absorb new knowledge. There is usually a specific date given for completion.

Some courses require supplemental text books. These textbooks are usually not mandatory but can be helpful, particularly if students do not know much about the subject. They usually contain practice strips and can be used to reinforce what is studied online. Calipers are often required as well and sometimes these are offered for purchase on the site.

Most courses require self-testing at the end of each lesson before proceeding. Some people are able to learn entirely on their own in this manner but others learn more effectively when they can ask questions and have discussions. A site that offers an interactive experiences is better for those who want feedback. For example, they may be able to post questions on a forum or join a discussion group.

Registration for such courses is easy and simply involves completing registration forms and making payment. A credit card can be used for payment for most courses and the option of paying via PayPal is usually available. Once payment has been made, access is given to material and learning can begin.

When studying in this manner it is important to stick to a schedule and be disciplined. The material is usually organized in a very logical, step-by-step manner and it is important not to move on to complex material without making sure that the previous material is fully understood. This is where self-assessment comes in and most sites have tests at the end of each lesson for the student to complete. Some courses have a more formal final exam than others. Most offer some kind of certification on successful completion.
