Tim Jones I thought you might think so. That’s why I enjoyed your previous comment. Thanks for watching and commenting!

[@timjones3486]

MiniMedLessons keep up the good work, all the very best.

[@minimedlessons]

Thank you!

[@suzan630]

great demonstration, you nailed it, please continue this series

[@usmleLION]

This is SOOO GOOD. I have suffered through EKG for 3 years in a USMD program where every teacher obviously knew it relatively well but did not OWN the subject like this legend OWNS IT! THank you!!!

[@LizEsc]

Thank you. You are a great instructor. You are not arrogant and you seem very bright. Brilliant even.

[@nagesh6130]

I'm from India sir n I'm going to join med school in couple of weeks I saw one of ur sutures tutorials it was awesome n i I think these kind of tutorials desperately need to be spread all over LUV from India ♥️♥️

[@minimedlessons]

Nagesh Joshi thank you so much for your comment and for watching! I’m so glad you have found my videos helpful. I plans to keep creating them so keep following along while you’re studying medicine. Best wishes and you start med school! Love from the USA! ❤️

[@ihsanullah8474]

Plz plz plz plz plz plz plz ......do upload videos like these. It is easy to understand because your voice is very clear and English is pronounced very good, non-English speakers can hear it easily. Today I encountered these videos while searching for something else. So I watched all three episodes. Thankssssssssss.

[@tjlordlucas6970]

That demonstration about where to place the electrodes was great, practical and really helpful to understand as to where exactly the electrodes have to be and how to place them .. Thank you so much..!

[@dignacolon6291]

[@minimedlessons]

I’m so glad! Best wishes with your exams!

[@megMD]

This video is very informative. Very detailed and well explained! Thank you.

[@minimedlessons]

I'm so glad it was helpful for you! Thanks for watching and commenting. I'm hoping to find the time to finish the rest of my EKG episodes soon. I have many more to go.

This video was more helpful than the last, definitely getting more into the meat of this subject. I was never aware of the EKG’s reading by direction/ angle between leads. I was aware of the precordial leads but not all the angles of a 12 lead. That CT scan was a great example of the directions the leads read from, particularly leads V5 and V6. That diagram on atrial depolarization in reference to the limb leads was perfect. Being able to actually understand how the direction of this electrical flow affects the EKG reading is fascinating. My background in this is fairly basic but I certainly enjoy learning more through these videos. Thank you for taking the time to put this content out for everyone to watch! -Roman

[@minimedlessons]

Awesome! So glad you found it helpful and that you learned a lot! That's my goal. Thanks for watching! Much more to come.

[@ihsanullah8474]

I'll be waiting for more videos on ECG.

Amazing videos. Please post the third video and rest of the series as well. It would be good if the breaks b/w each episode can be reduced.

Thank you so much for your comment. COVID derailed a lot in my professional life, both in my full time teaching position and my clinical practice in emergency medicine. Life has been hectic but is slowing back down. I hope to start working on this series again soon. Thanks!
