The role of the nurse practitioner in primary care continues to expand, and with that expansion come new expectations of skills and responsibilities in our practice.

  • Learn to identify the critical electrocardiogram changes seen in myocardial ischemia, injury and infarct to help you with your assessment of the person at-risk-for or with cardiovascular disease

Note: The optional post-test will help you to confirm your new skills.
