For a little light revision regarding ElectroCardioGraphy (or EKGs if you're from the USA) this link to the University of Utah's ECG image library may be useful.

Long Case Tip
My friend Tash showed me a neat little trick. Some of you probably do this anyway...
Take a sheet of A4, and divide it up into sections for History and Examination, Investigations, Bloods, Drugs, Main Problems and Implications, and if you have time add information about your possible anaesthetic technique.
Use this when going through any practice long case viva, so that you get used to the layout, and it becomes a bit like the Mersey technique for SAQs, where you do it the same way often enough you don't get frightened of it.
When Tash showed me this I remarked that it seemed to be remarkably similar to the front side of the anaesthetic charts where I work...
For an example (obviously created in Paint):
Why do this? Well, it keeps everything neat and organised, and means you can easily refer back to your information "at a glance".
