From my experience - just keep watching and memorizing. You will get it!
Where you located
my second career after being a CPC coder / MA for over 20 years ! Thank you for explaining the strips, I am taking an online ACLS EKG course
Understand the concepts first and then practice here. Truly a find!
Super
Do you teach ekg technician program at any school
for people who have hearty issues like myself , i am so grateful for people who devote their lives to making my condition better, bless these medical minds, great video
Thanks for the compliments. I do love to teach these topics. Bless you, and and be well!
Michele
i like it when you have it i so fine
As for the people who are cardiologists who are only there for the money.
They can go to hell
Agreed, in fact, I am getting to thank them right now as I am currently on the Cardiac Thoracic ward at my local hospital.
HEARTY?!??!?
What a great teacher you are, though the video is about 9 years old, it still remains relevant and you're very good at keeping the attention of your pupils. It's very informative, but not in a boring way. You got me to do some research on more of this topic.
Thanks!
14 years later, I'm enjoying every moment of this video. Thank you Ma'am.
12 years later and it's still one of the best videos on this topic! Thank you
It took me months of working in CCU to know what you tell in 10 minutes... Thanks alot
This must be shown to all medical students before internship. Hats off. 🔥🔥
I'm reviewing for a test I have to take and pass in order to get a contract at a hospital, this video was very straight forward and informative. There are too many video's on this topic that include a lot of fluff and irrelevant information. The instructor reminds me of the instructors I had when I started my first nursing job 7 years ago. I had 2 weeks of classroom training that went into great detail of EKG interpretation. Mercy took over and they fired all the instructors, replacing them with computer modules. God be with you if you end up in a hospital today.
Who are those 80 thumbs down? Shame on you. This video is very informative and good. Thank you very much.
I give you 2 thumbs up. Thanks for watching, and the positive feedback!
Michele
I sometime think at times it can be persons accidentally clicking thumbs down... it may not be every one but I do feel it is an error on some persons part
I agree 100% excellent!
@@triciaapplewhite4939 youtube also uses bots i think to leave dislikes to make it look more balanced and "real".
Good thing thumbs down are gone 😄😄👍👍👍
I’m having an exam this week and this video helps me to understand more about the types of heart rhythms ❤️😊
Thank you!👍
I have pots and just all kinds of weird symptoms so I got a kardia 6L ekg monitor so far long qrs and atrial difibillation keeps popping up in just two days I’ve had it been all over the place trying to understand how to read the ekg just confusing til I started watching this God send of a angel who is blessed with knowledge and teaching. So far she has been the only one who I can understand and learn from about being more knowledgeable about what I am looking at. God bless this woman thank you so much!!
Absolutely love ALL your videos! It all comes together watching them instead of reading it in a text book. Thank you!!!
This is one of the best videos displaying the many different rhythms for ACLS! Thanks so much!
Thank you Michelle, First ACLS in 13 years your video was sooo helpful!!!
I watched this video when I first started working in critical care... it was clear, but I didn't quite understand what I was looking at. but after working and looking at the monitors... this is the best explained video I've seen... thank you
+Jerrica Stokes Well Thank YOU. I am still learning something new every day in critical care!
Thanks Jerrica, by now you are an excellent critical nurse. Please share your knowledge with other nurses.
Before you know it you will be ready to take the CCRN exam!.
Michele
michelekunz Can you please put the subtitles on this video?
,
"Longer, longer, longer, drop! What's my name? Wenckebach!" hahaha. I love this lady.
Great videos for nurses having difficulty understanding ekg's. Very well explained, and simplified! Thank you so much!
Extremely useful. Very effective teaching. Very practical. One can not forget many terms after seeing this video. Unlike other numerous videos, monitor is showing the rhythm Streep. This makes it more realistic, practical and effective. 👍
Outstanding! Thank you so much, Michele. Taking ACLS right now, this helped out A BUNCH!
Thank you Nurse Michele !! I have learned so much from your videos, and your note & study guides...I cant thank you enough!! I love watching the rhythms' as you explain them!!
Taking ACLS renewal tomorrow, this is a great refresher video for strips I don't see too often. Thank you so much! On a side note, every tele floor in every hospital should have one of these so that the staff can educate themselves when necessary,
It is a blessing that people are willing to put all their time and effort into understanding the technical aspect of our body so that they can take care professionally based on what they can make out of the measurements from their equipment and tools. And the technical aspect of a human body requires a much greater feeling of responsibility because we are talking about human lives and not machines, infrastructure or architecture for example. Thanks for this video!
Michelle, you are amazing at explaining. So clear and composed. You saved my life!
Glad it was helpful!
The actual monitor of the rhythms is very helpful. After awhile, paper strip learning gets old. Thanks for posting!
You explained rhythm deviations perfectly. Thank you so much!
A great and concise explanation on rhythms. Thank you!
Thank you for sharing my video, I look forward to hearing from them as well.
I am a monitor tech for 10 years already and I watched this video to see if it is well explained and yes you do know very well good job ,👍
Glad you are enjoying the videos. Thanks for the comments.
Michele and Joe
Glad to hear the videos help. Thank you.
I just can’t say enough thank you🙏🏻🙏🏻
Thank you!!! This helped me A LOT!
This is sooooo informative.
So helpful! Can you do one with the interventions in response to the rhythm?
I'm so happy for this video! Thank you so much Mr. Michele!
I'm sitting here at the hospital hook up to the machine, watching the video. Thank you for educating us on what it does and how it works.
BRAVO 👏🏼❤️
I want to thank you kindly Nurse Michele Kunz for this informative and very well explained training video.
I will continue to watch all your videos to review for my EKG state exam 🙏🏼
I'm very happy to hear that it helped. Michele.
thank you so much it is so much easier to watch your videos than trying read through a textbook
Thank you very much.
Honestly, I've been in nursing for 9 years and still watch this video to refresh my mind lol. This is one of the best out there
Seen loads of ECG videos and strips ,this is the best . Thanks for this lovely presentation Michelle
O Isawi Wow, thank you very much for the great compliments. Thank you for watching.
absolutely love the way u explained second degree heart block :)
Thank you! Yes, the heart blocks was the most difficult subject to learn. Hope to hear from you soon. Thanks
Michele
michelekunz I recently passed my ekg course and I'm taking the aspt test soon...is there any advice you can give me?...this video was extremely informative.
@@askia81 How'd it go?
Ya baby
Thankyou for your video. I have viewed many, but this was the most simple, logical and informative thus far.
I’m going to use this to help study for paramedicine and identifying irregularities or different heartbeats in general and being able to diagnose the issue at hand. Thank you, this was very well made!
Thank you for taking the time to make this video. It’s very helpful!
This is where I learnt the rhythms for my ACLS course. Well explained and very helpful.
Thank you!!
Wow. Thank you very much. I am very happy to hear that you found it helpful.
wow I get to see the real thing on the monitor thank you for this! I actually took a course and recently got my certification on EKG technician! :)
thank you very much. am studying for an MA and about to start EKG. This video has given me an idea about it. THANK YOU SO MUCH. YOU ARE VERY HELPFUL.
Thank you from Mexico Michelle for sharing knowledge
Absolute life saver, and without a doubt the best description/explanation of common arrhythmias on yotube. Thanks a tonne.
emi amida..SALAAM Sister MICHELLE, I have been in Neurosurgical unit,A/E unit,Medical ICu /CCU..and has been a Nursing Sister..your tutorial explanation on ecg reading is superb.Thanks Sister.GOD BLESS YOU.
Nicely explained all the important things about ECG rhythms
thanks so much for this video! it's hard learning EKG just looking at graphs drawn by professors so it's extremely helpful having an actual machine and explanation.
On my way take my EKG test and wanted to thank you for this interesting video.I've watched many UA-cam videos over the past four weeks while studying my books and written materials and this is by far the easiest one I've done so far. I just listened and learned. God bless you for your work.
Best of luck!
Studying ECG right now this video was so helpful. Thanks a lot
Thank you so much for sharing. This helps me a lot..EKGs are not my complete strong point but you make it sounds so easy to understand.
Thank you so very much . You're amazing and your videos are very educational and easy to understand
I'm enrolled in this type of class thank you for helping me understand a little better at first I was confused but I'm learning🤗🙌
This is the best EkG video i have ever seen thank you sooo much 🌹🌹 for your effort
Fantastic, this really helped me alot. Still had go over the 2nd degree heart block a few times. Thank you
Thank you Professor Kunz! A very informational video :)
@Serpico261 Thank you so much for the nice compliment. I really appreciate it. I am so glad that you found them helpful. Joe and I work very hard on producing them.
Thank you so much for the video, the way you explain is great!
Thank you for this great video! While I did understand how to interpret different ekg readings from my book, it is very helpful to see them in a video, instead of just a picture. Your explanations and descriptions were also very helpful! :)
Thank you Michele Kunz, excellent instructions and information!
kalan scallan Thank you very much. I really appreciate your feedback. Michele
Really loved the video. It was very helpful. Could interpret maximum of those. Thanks for a wonderful video

I am learning how to read EKGs in my class now and this is just, such a great resourse for info. It was very helpfull. Thanks so much
This is a good video I am a telemetry tech and we have to know these 100% and every year we get tested to make sure we are on our A game. We watch at least 80 souls with lots of monitors ❤
Nicely arranged and done !
I remember working as a tech in ICU. Loved this job
This has been so helpful. Thank you very much for the video. Will doing my ACLS course shortly.

Hi Salim. Thank you very much. I am very happy to hear that you found my videos helpful. Michele
thanks Michelle, you made the very difficult and the very confusing easy to understand...
Millions of thanks!
I love the way you are just like, “thank you” it’s so awesome. Great video thank you. -Ashley the nursing student.
i loved that too haha
@Goldenrod636
Hi, yes there is a ECG simulator that hooks up to the monitor/defibrillator. You can select a variety of rhythms and heart rates. This is what we use in ACLS courses and mock codes in the hospital teaching setting.
Hope this answered your question.
Michele
I love your videos about ekg and reading them. You make it so easy to umderstand. keep up the good work !
Thanks Leon, I appreciate your comments!
Michele
Thank you so much! I will have test tomorrow and this help me study a lot
Very informative indeed! Thank you so much for sharing ma’am! Thank you for sharing your expertise with everyone . Hope you make more future videos regarding SVTs and their possible treatments . I suffer from Tachycardia and I’ve been on Toprol to help keep my Heart Rate under control. If the med ever fails to help keep my HR under control,then what are possible treatments that can be administered ? Again,thank you for your expertise Michelle.
Very precise and informative. Thank you
starting my ekg program next month and I'll be watching your videos in advance! thank you
+Itzhelt Villanueva How did your EKG class go. Watching the videos after the class helps with more understanding and keeps the information fresh in your head!
Michele
I finished my cardiac tech program 3 yrs ago and was looking for a refresher video. I give👏🏾👏🏾💯💯💯 to yours. I'm ready to complete my MA program and my desire is to work in cardiology and/or neurology sleep disorders, your video one of best.
Good luck.
I'm just a graphic designer doing my research and I understood very well! Thanks!
Thanks. I've watched many educational videos on this. Yours is the best.
A medical student here, great video, thank you so much! :)
Thank you so much!!!! I finally got it after watching your video!
Thanks hon. I am working full time as a medic now and as an RN you really don't get alot of cardiac training..thus I am a bit behind in my cardiac skills ...excellent videos for an educational boost!!!! :)
I preparing for ALS. Its awesome video and helped me a lot. Thanks
Thank you so much. I appreciate your work
Thank you Madam. So wonderful class.Love you...God bless you...
Very helpfully, you speak very clearly and slowly so you can better diagnose the reading..
Respected mam, i really love your way of teaching with fascinating videos from the bottom of my heart. Its really helpful.
Great video, I am sure a lot of nursing students will find this video helpful!
Thank you. its always good to review the basics.
Thanks Gary, I appreciate your comments!
Michele
I really enjoyed your video. Most paramedic have to discern the rhythm on the actually monitor screen first then confirm it on paper. So great work teaching it on the monitor screen.
+dan “danomite” roldan Thank you Dan.
