QUICK REFERENCE

Recognizing heart block

Compare first-degree AV block, Mobitz I, Mobitz II, and complete heart block on illustrative EKGs.

Recognize the urgent patient first

Hemodynamic instability, ongoing ischemic symptoms, or severe respiratory distress call for acute evaluation. Each topic highlights situations that need hospital care.

CONNECT WITH CARE

Refer a patient to Dr. Freeman

Office contacts, urgency guidance, and the records that help make the first visit useful.
