Thanks for such a great tutorial! I thoroughly enjoyed watching the amount of material you covered in such a short amount of time. Your use of graphics, animations, text all linked to your narration was a joy to behold. Thanks for sharing with us all.
This is so helpful! i was so tired reading books and yet can't really imagine & understand it and then there goes your video, all short and clean & it's beautifully explained, thank you!
My classmates and I in an acute care DNP program are EXTREMELY grateful for this. We all had quite a lot of ECG experience before, but absolutely none of us had any experience with the cardiac axis, as that was usually dealt with by other providers when we were RNs. This was a succinct, helpful presentation, & we've passed it around among pretty much everyone in our class. Thank you so much!
I can't express my happiness for being familiar with your MAGIC explanation about Cardiac Axis , ECG , as well as Reading Strip rhythm ... which I've suffering from them for months ... I'm really smiling form ear to ear and impressed with your greatness ! God bless you Dr.Smith 🌹🌹🙏🏻🙏🏻
WOW! after years of being a med student and panicking when a consultant asked me about axis deviation, i finally understand this!!! thank you SO much!!
Thank you, thank you! As an EP professional (but one whose job rarely requires analysis of the axis) this is a lifesaver! Now I can easily calculate the axis for each of my patients which will actually help me be better at what I do. :-)
Wow... that was very well explained. 12 leads have been the death of me however this video has given me hope of finally understanding how to calculate the axis. Thank you!
@nick smith I'm sure this video isn't perfect, but I'm so grateful that you posted it. Everything else was too detailed and I didn't know where to start. This is a great starting point, so THANK YOU!!
Thanks for this, quite useful for the cardiology lab portion of my exam! It's tricky at first but it goes down to first principles interpreting the magnitudes and angles of your vectors
You sum up all the information I learn in an entire day within just a 4 minutes video. I wish I know about this video sooner. Extraordinary work! Subscribed.
@@NickSmithUGME I have a q sir , as u explain in first case by looking positive aVF so, what if aVF is negative will we have to shift it to -90 degree if so then the ans would be LAD (in the beginning case 1 which u had discussed )??? Plz explain . THANKS YOU
for all the people who are willing to understand the true electric fundamentals of ECG - it is NOT the lead, it IS the + ELECTRODE towards which the el.impulse travels and hence generates the positive(upward) deflection on the ECG graphy.
Leads I, II, and III are the limb leads. aVR, aVL, and aVF are the augmented voltage leads for the right arm and left arm and left foot. They are augmented because the sum of voltage called Wilsons point created by the limb leads I,II ,and III is to small to create a meaningful deflection on the EKG. This needs to be corrected.
Regina Becker Agree entirely with what you say but as it makes no difference to the interpretation of the axis I am going to leave it as I haven't got the time to re do the video. Sorry! N
2 hours of class lecture of gibberish...... into 5 minutes of UNDERSTANDABLE information. THANK YOU!

A word of recommendation from the best anatomy teacher, I must never miss watching this video then...
Of a class of three ppl and a month to learn this has no comparison towards this awesome 5 minute video.
This is so helpful! i was so tired reading books and yet can't really imagine & understand it and then there goes your video, all short and clean & it's beautifully explained, thank you!
I’ve been trying to understand this for hours, and you just explained it perfectly in minutes.. thank you!!!

Have tried to understand this for 4yrs. You've helped me finally give it a fantastic knockout
I have tried to make sense of this for years- thank you for your clear explanation
OMG I HAVE NEVER SEEN SUCH A BETTER AND QUICK EXPLANATION, GOD BLESS YOU
After watching your video I finally had that "ah ha" moment for understanding how to apply this concept. Thank you for sharing this!
Thank you, thank you! As an EP professional (but one whose job rarely requires analysis of the axis) this is a lifesaver! Now I can easily calculate the axis for each of my patients which will actually help me be better at what I do. :-)
I could never understand the cardiac axis until this video! Thanks so much!
Wow... that was very well explained. 12 leads have been the death of me however this video has given me hope of finally understanding how to calculate the axis. Thank you!
Clarity. Pure and simple. Thank you sir
Wow! The morning of my exam I watched this video and learned this way. Very simple. Very helpful.
Thank you so much! You did it in just minutes rather than hours of reading!
Thank you. The first time someone actually explained this so that I understood!
Every time I forget details about the cardiac axis I got back to this video ! It had helped me so much Thank you sir
"Congratulations you've just worked out the cardiac axis" EUPHORIA!
Thanks a lot!
Clear, concise, and informative. Thank you for a great video!
Honestly, the best explanation I ever had so far, I now understand it! Thank you!
You're very welcome!
Thank you a lot. Ur explanation allows me to understand just like within five mins.
@nick smith I'm sure this video isn't perfect, but I'm so grateful that you posted it. Everything else was too detailed and I didn't know where to start. This is a great starting point, so THANK YOU!!
Wow... way better than my textbook... Thank you! :)
Thank you so much! I finally understood ECG axis calculation after 4.5 years!
Love when something is summed up so well. Lightbulb moment!! thanks
Thank you so much! Quick and simple explanation.

this the best video on cardiac axis i've seen so far.. amazing work. . thank you very much.
Thank you! I had a report due and had no clue where to start. Cheers
omg thanks to this video i didnt have to rewatch three hours of lectures, you saved my time 🙏🙏
I'm currently revising ECG for an optional module in nursing at King's College London and this has helped me crack axis; my biggest thanks to you sir!
SIMPLE AND TO THE POINT
Omg this just helped me tremendously! I have 2 months until my state exam and this was something I could NOT grasp
Insanely amazing vid!! No words can describe how beautiful this is
This is so helpful! Thank you so much I have learned a lot through this tutorial.
This is absolutely beautiful. Thank you!
Amazing sir ! May God bless you.

Thank you so much for such an amazing and simple to understand explanation !!!
It feels illegal for this to be this simple, best explanation! thank you
you’re welcome
First year medical student with an exam on ECG tomorrow- many thanks for this. It really helped!!
what happened to u? do u still at med school?
First video on this topic which seems to be comprehensive for freshers too.. kudos
Thank you for explaining this so well.
for all the people who are willing to understand the true electric fundamentals of ECG - it is NOT the lead, it IS the + ELECTRODE towards which the el.impulse travels and hence generates the positive(upward) deflection on the ECG graphy.
Wow that the answer to all my confusions in determining cardiac axis, sir hope you have a great day
Clear and simple and comprehensive
Thank you sir
Thank you very much for the explanation. Finally, I understood how to interpret axis.
Amazing explained! Thank you !!
That was fantastic. Thanks so much.
Now this is so clear for me :D thanks a lot
The best ECG video!
Thank you sir! you just made cardiac axis very easy.
you did in 5 minutes what my teacher failed to do in 30 minutes, thanks!
Wow!!! Amazing explanation! Thank you so much!!
Dude. this is crazy useful. Thank you.
YOU'RE ACTUALLY AWESOME! THANK YOU SO MUCH!
This was so handy, thank you!

great work. thank you very much.
Best video ever. My all doubts are cleared .. Ty so much 🙏😁
thank you that was so helpful :))

I just thought where you had so many views it ought to be correct. Otherwise well done!
Regina Becker You make your point well - have added an annotation to the video and credited :)
Thanks
