Know: How to measure ECG and what each part means
How to calculate heart rate from the ECG recording
Structure of the conducting system of the heart
That electrical activity precedes mechanical
What SA and AV nodes, Bundle of His, Purkinje Fibers do in particular
Bradycardia, Tachycardia, Sinus Rhythm, Automaticity, Rhythmycity,
pacemaker, ectopic pacemaker, myocardium, systole, diastole
