EKG's You Can Text!

  1. So I texted a bunch of EKG rhythms on Twitter. Feel free to peruse my work, repost it on Twitter or on your blogs. I got like a dozen new followers from it! The basic ones are at the bottom; work your way up the page to the more advanced rhythms. Or do it the other way; I don't care. This is the best way I could find to write EKG's via keyboard. Enjoy. (Sorry, but I doubt you can get continuing education hours.)

Did you really spend your time typing all that stuff, or did you copy and paste it? Too much time on your hands. I'm going to put a list of projects together for you!
