Lastly before bed, a great resource for ECG interpretation:

How many nursing 12 lead blogs are on the Internet? How many nurses have the experience, education, or interest to create a resource like that? A better question: how or why would they?

How many nurses have authored 12-lead books? http://www.amazon.ca/12-Lead-ECG-The-Art-Interpretation/dp/0763712841

It doesn't happen. Why would it? We could have had a much more interesting discussion, if you didn't resort to insults and ad hominem attacks. You may have even learned a thing or two. Instead I know exactly the way this is going to turn out. Maybe you can prove me wrong.

Congrats on your match!

I think the best ECG book is Garcia's. It's really nicely done and includes sectioned learning points for beginners, intermediate learners, and advanced learners on every apge. My first time through I only read the "Level 1" and "Level 2" learning points. Later I went through again and read the "Level 3" points also. It's a super solid foundation.

I second all the suggestions below, with a caveat. Dr. Smith's blog is excellent. Its strong offerings are really smart pearls you won't learn elsewhere, and great training in pattern recognition. There tends to be less discussion of bread-and-butter features. Almost every ecg offered is tricky. If you find yourself struggling to keep up or surprised at the outcome of every case, your foundation probably isn't strong enough yet - see the first paragraph.

Dr. Smith (often) makes a really great point about practicing ECGs. You need to look at the ECG and have info available about the patient's clinical course. Picking up ECGs you find lying around the department can be good practice in identifying the basic features, but if you don't know how the patient actually did this isn't helping you corrrelate patterns of disease (the ultimate goal).

To add to other's comments, I've enjoyed "12-Lead ECG, Art of Interpretation". They have practice EKGs at the back as well as discussion EKGs in each chapter highlighting various topics.
