Learning Outcomes


  • Identify the three essential parameters (values) that assist with analysis of a rhythm strip.
  • Demonstrate how to work out these three parameters: PR interval, QRS width, QT interval.
  • How to recognise and interpret atrial fibrillation and SVT on the rhythm strip
  • Understand the significance of a normal rhythm on telemetry which can be a cardiac arrest - such as PEA

Telemetry Monitoring Course

The future of the clinical ward environment

The growth of telemetry in both specialist units and general ward situations has heightened the Nurse’s responsibility to ensure their knowledge regarding cardiac arrhythmias and ECG interpretation is current and reflects best practice guidelines.

Understanding the foundation of electrophysiology and the three parameters of measurements will aid the nurse in recognition of any deviation from the normal cardiac rhythm.
CPD Hours: 11

This course is ideal for: 

The content covered in this course is considered essential knowledge and clinical competence of any Nurse working in the areas of ward telemetry, coronary care, critical care, and emergency nursing.

It is also key information for the Nurse working in other clinical areas who is wanting to upskill their knowledge on the interpretation of arrhythmias and 12 lead ECG.

You’ll learn: 

  • Identify the three essential parameters (values) that assist with analysis of a rhythm strip.

  • How to recognise and interpret atrial fibrillation and SVT on the rhythm strip
  • Understand the significance of a normal rhythm on telemetry which can be a cardiac arrest - such as PEA
  • Demonstrate how to work out these three parameters: PR interval, QRS width, QT interval.
“Simply Awesome an outstanding presenter [Anne] who gave her all. An excellent teacher who could reach those at a basic level as well as advanced practitioners.”

"Anne made ECG’s understandable. Excellent conference. I feel empowered with the ability to confidently read ECG’s and GP’s to review patients immediately if required. Thank you."

- Karen | Telemetry 2022



"Omg Anne, words cannot explain how easily you describe ECG and how easy you make it to remember."

- Liz | Telemetry 2022






"It was absolutely amazing. I really enjoyed the presenter [Anne] and the manner in which she presented the content. I would really recommend it to everyone."

- Anne | The Deteriorating Patient | New Zealand




So glad I attended this workshop, I learnt more in to 2 days than I have in years trying to teach myself, it finally makes sense and I still remember it. Thank you, Anne, you have a gift and are a sensational educator.”

- Rachel | Telemetry, Cardiac Arrhythmias and 12 Lead ECG | Hervey Bay

Why Anne thinks all Nurses should do this course

“Not every Nurse can attend face-to-face lectures or seminars, and I wanted to create a course available at all times for busy Nurses. My goal was to create a course that was different from other webinars. I have been teaching interpretation of arrhythmias and 12 lead ECGs for many years and have found it more effective when it is interactive.

I like to add a bit of humour into the important concepts to make them interesting, to influence Nurses to become experts at reading ECGs and rhythms and also assist them in developing confidence in their knowledge. Nursing CPD worked with me to develop the interactive format of this cardiac course allowing me to assist the students as they progress through many of the exercises”

This course is for:

Any Nurse working in the areas of ward telemetry, coronary care, critical care, and emergency nursing. The content covered in this course is considered essential knowledge, it is also key information for the Nurse working in other clinical areas who is wanting to upskill their knowledge on the interpretation of arrhythmias.

You’ll will also learn:

  • The cardiac complex: waves, segments and timing intervals

  • The foundation of interpretation of sinus rhythm
  • The presentation and pathophysiology of atrial fibrillation
  • Two potentially life-threatening complications of atrial fibrillation
  • Interpretation of PEA (Pulseless electrical activity) and VT (Ventricular tachycardia)
  • The treatment of PEA and VT according to the Australian and New Zealand Committee of Resuscitation guidelines (ANZCOR)
  • The warning signs of impending cardiac arrest on the telemetry monitor
  • The R on T phenomenon
  • Sudden cardiac death in the youth
  • Hereditary Long QT interval syndrome
  • The common errors that are made in performing a 12 lead ECG
  • The recognition of a paced rhythm
  • The three common tachycardias seen on telemetry:
  • Sinus tachycardia
  • Supraventricular tachycardia
  • Ventricular tachycardia

ANNE'S CARDIAC COURSES

An Essential Course for all Nurses.

Frequently asked questions:

Q. Who is this course for?
A:  Any nurse working in critical care, coronary care, emergency departments as well as the general ward areas. It is designed not only for the critical care areas, but ideal for the nurse in a telemetry ward or any nurse who performs a 12 lead ECG for a patient with chest pain.

Q. Who’s the presenter?
A: Anne Evans-Murray – R.N., BHlthSc, MACCCN, Grad.Dip Ed, MEd, Dip Counselling, GradCertCritCare, CertIV Training and Assessment, and CertIV in Mediation


Q. How will this help me in my career?
A: The changing environment in health has led to lack of access to advanced care settings such as critical care units as they may not be available. Therefore, nurses in all areas require both basic and more advanced clinical knowledge and skills in this area of care to manage these patients across a range of clinical settings.
