Honestly I study ECGs every year and then forget everything by the next year... it sucks
Same. Smh
Preach
االظاكفنففعنتي!ووووولعبسلبب سهضان$لىةياي
I can relate!!
Same. I learned it for internal medicine pretty well, and now I have to relearn it from scratch in my final year
GREAT video here! I LOVE the Osmosis content! I'm making medical topic videos because I found you guys so inspiring, including a new EKG series soon. Keep up the great work, Osmosis!
It's been 3 years since I was introduced to ECGs, and I've been since then trying to wrap my head around this very concept.
Only 8 minutes of quality content did what textbooks could not in years.
Superb video, thank you!!!
Uzoaku Amadi ,,,imagine while reading ,,that will help u understand more
Likewise, and makes me wonder if I am an idiot or my teachers were unable to go back to the extreme basics this video provides... (possibly a mix of both)
Yes! Same here!
He's NOT explaining anything ! He's simply stating a loooong string of facts one after the other. The reason this vid helped u is purely cause it helped fill in the blanks u had learned earlier. And i presume u didn't apply yourself well before.
Same today i spent all day for understanding something of this topic, but i gained few few concepts, only 8 minutes has solved it immediately!!!
I guess most of you guys are in med school. I legit don't understand most of what he said but explanation was great for the code I'm writing that represents this for my mechanical engineering class. Good luck future doctors
Rofiq El Imagine this video being too simple... that’s med school 😂
@Rofiq El I think if you look at Action Potentials to understand what is being said about depolarisation and repolarisation then it should make better sense.
As an engineer could you explain what does it mean that the dipole direction is towards the positive from outside what rule is this taken from?
I used to love physics but this whole ECG thing doesn't make sense to me.
(Just to make sure that I'm getting the video right:
1- The dipole moves toward the positive on outside that's why the vector at first points toward the positive electrode hence giving a positive deflection
2- However, at repolarization the ions were reversed that's why the vector was reversed and since the charges are moving away from the positive electrode the deflection was in the negative direction.)
@@hebaelnabawy8871 I have just the same question in mind. , I see I am not alone , because I have started to think I am the only one who has silly doubts .
@@ayanmajumder4144 ikr I have seen approximately 10 videos beside my textbook and no one comment on this so, I thought that this is physics 101 that I just don't get.
As my exams are getting closer I got my golden answer: that's how it works😂👍
You know what? We had our first cardiology class in med School (5th year) and I really needed someone to explain me the ECG. This video is perfect and specific. I'm fed up on books spending pages over pages and in the end failing to explain things. Wish our professors used videos as yours in our educational process.
Wow, we're glad that our video was able to help with your studies! 🥰❤️🙏🏼
This is the clearest I have ever had ECGs explained to me, through nursing school, and then grad school! I needed to know that electrodes and leads are two different things, though they are related. Now I know what each lead means, and which part of the heart it is recording! Thank you!
I am understanding ok thanks
This is so high yield yet so simply explained. Y'all are amazing.
I'm shook at how much physics actually goes into ECG's.
It is a lot! We hope you found the video useful! If you haven't yet checked out our educational platform we have a bunch of tools that we think you'd like. These include unreleased videos, tens of thousands of flashcards and multiple-choice practice questions, study workspaces, and daily exam schedule organizers to help you learn medicine.

You're "shook"?!
@@Abrikosmanden yes, as in "shook up"
@@DubSalvation Yeah, that's not a thing. You might be shaken up, not shook up. If someone shook you, you'd be shaken, not shook.
How much Shook would a shook shuck shuck If a shook up could shuck shook?
Best ECG basics explanation I've seen so far, Osmosis always the best .. love u guys
Just signed up to the free trial to watch the rest. Very clear and helpful. I was looking at the oxford handbook scratching my head, but this explained it all under an hour.
Under 10 minutes
I watched 1 minute of this video then immediately went to Patreon, great job thank you!
Osmosis, you guys are truly doing god's work. Thank you.
Thank you so much, Lovena! If you’re interested in getting early access to our videos check us out on Facebook: bit.ly/2u35D6J, or, even better, get exclusive access to dozens of our unreleased videos now at our website: bit.ly/2ut5ZEJ.
One of the best and clearest videos about the 12-L. Thank you!
Absolutely fantastic explanation, cheers!
Only small suggestion would be to mention, that depolarisation & repolarisation of the myocard occur in opposite directions ultimately leading to a positive curve response in both cases on the ECG, which is why the P- & T-waves are usually both depicted as positive.
Failure to mention this might have people confused when trying to interpret an actual ECG.
Nevertheless an excellent video for the basics!
Very good point! You saved me a headache and some googling tonight. Thanks!
YOU ARE GOLD BROTHER
Thanks so much! This explains it better than my EKG book! Took this course back in 2005 but your video helped me recap. I appreciate it
Hi, I really appreciate your video.
Which software do you use to draw in your video?
Thank's a lot
This is the best introduction to ECG EVER
Aishwarya Ghonge indian yo buddy
This is a good explanation for people who like math, and it helped me finally sum up everything I learned over the past two days.
You guys did what a 2000 pages books couldn’t do! And only in 8:35 mins.
Nicely done.
My thought exactly!
Just pause the video to write that u did this incredibly, i can now understand those cvs chapters
Just wow!!! I have no word to write. It was so clearly and magnificently explained. I went to medical College and never understood EKG in depth.. you have beautifully explained EKG...well done..love it !! ❤️ Thank you so much🙏🙏
Glad to help, Sangita! 🥰
I guess this is the only video on the internet that clearly explains the basics of ecg. Hope to see more of the ecg videos. Great work guys.
Thanks for the kind words! You can check out 7 more of them now on our website: bit.ly/2xocnyc !
I'm dropping out of nursing after this video. Thank you osmosis.
Huh why? ?
Ik I'm a little late
@@maramz3146 no no I am curious too
.
persist, overcome
I have asked people to explain how ECGs work for 5 years and every time they say what they do but never how they do it, I'm so happy that I know now!
Very exquisite explanation and animation. Well done.
I couldn’t understand in class and physiology textbook, now I finally understand! Thank you~ Love from Taiwan
Generally i know ECG but it took me much time to understand when I was a student. This video is showing clearly basics physiology of heart and i believe it will help students.
That's the goal, Pitoleczek! Thanks for watching! If you’re interested in getting early access to our videos check us out on Facebook: bit.ly/2u35D6J!
Not all students can afford the money for a prime subscriber 😞. Although the money could be not that much for a US student, please understand that it's too much to afford for a student coming from a third-world country like me. I understand how the world works and that you need the money but you were doing a really great humanitarian job when you were sharing educational materials with every student in the world. Please reconsider holding the wonderful educational material by osmosis in exchange of money.
Hi Moaz, thanks for the feedback. Many of us are involved with Osmosis because we produce three educational videos a week and publish them, for free, on CZcams and Wikipedia. We think it's a great cause, but these videos aren't cheap or easy to make and all of us involved need to make a living--this is full-time work for several people. So we have to make money as an organization to keep producing videos. That said, if you want to see these videos for free you can sign up for a free trial at bit.ly/2ut5ZEJ. We also give membership time away for free with referrals. I hope this helps!
Thank you for your kind reply. I can totally understand you and I wish you nothing but good for all the lovely work you have done so far and still doing. Do I wish that any human can have access to studying material anywhere and anytime?! Sure, who doesn't! ... Is this the way life works?! Unfortunately no, hopefully, one day it will! I still love you.
Tamil songs
Don't give up... money is a big thing here too!!
Yes please reduce the amount for subscription
listened to my lecturer for 50 minutes in class and another 50 minutes of the lecture recording, but understood nothing; watched this 8.5 minute video and now I know how ECG works. YAY!!!!!!!!
Thank you so so very much!!!!
Hope your lecturer won't see this
WHY didn't I discover this channel earlier????? THIS IS AMAZING
This was truly amazing. Thank you
This is incredible, thank you so much.
Literally could not understand any of this before this video! THANK YOU!!!
God bless you!!! I swear your work gives me such a better and deeper understanding of whatever material I may be learning. Your work is GREATLY appreciated!!
What a fabulous overview of the basics! Exactly what I needed!
Glad this helps! 😊
You guys explained this concept waayyyy better than my nursing instructor did. Thank you so much for your help!
Glad to help, Sarah! 😊
Thank you so much for the video, it's really helpful and easy to understand.
Very well done. Visually and information-wise!
Please please please continue I need to learn more about ECG, this was a great video I learned too much from it.
can i pay by indian debit card?

Keep up the good work! You are saving lots of medical students here XD
Its begining to make sense to me! Thank you!!!!!
Hallo I am from Indonesia I want to riview this video:
EKG secara khusus menunjukkan bagaimana gelombang depolarisasi setiap detakan jantung yang merupakan gelombang mutan positif. Dan tampilanya bergantung pada rangkaian elektroda yang digunakan. Sel elektroda ini disebut lead 2 misalnya dengan satu elektroda di tengah kanan dan dikaki kiri, pada dasarnya saat gelombang bergerak ke arah elektroda kaki kiri akan mendapatkan defleksi positif, seperti defleksi positif besar ini sesuai dengan gelombang yang bergerak ke bawah vertikal kiri dan kanan. Pada saat seseorang beristirahat sel akan bermuatan relatif negatif dibandingkan diluar lingkungan dan ketika mereka mendepolarisasi, sel-sel menjadi bermuatan positif, meninggalkan muatan sedikit negatif diluar lingkungan. Elektroda akan mendeteksi muatan yang ada diluar sel jika muatan yang berada diluar sel cenderung bermuatan positif maka EKG akan menunjukkan tracking tersebut sebagai defleksi positif-semakin besar dipol semakin besar defleksi sehingga akan menunjukkan gambar mengarah ke atas. Sebliknya jika muatan diluar sel cenderung negatif maka akan terjadi depolarisasi dan gambar akan menunjukkan garis lurus.
Thank You
Nice to see this video after rote learning
It makes to understand the things that I read in the book clearly
Amazing explanation! Thank you
Perfect timing!
Glad we could help, Manisha! If you're interested in more videos on ECG check out our website here: bit.ly/2xocnyc
This was amazing! Thank you!
I understand nothing
i was about to comment the exact same thing lol
Same here
In the next future, if i understand it i will give u a kick. Lol
I started yawning within 2 mins of the video lol*monotone*
me too
The human population should be proud of such potential 👏👏 greetings 🙏
Pongan los sub en español por faaaaa 😭, sigan así son excelentes gracias por dedicar su tiempo en nosotros !! 👍
Sofia Vallori ,,there r tons of video available for ecg
Great video on what ECG (EKG) measures, if possible add one minute to explain what to watch out using different equipment.
Willl not forget this concept in my entire life
❤️❤️ from INDIA....keep producing these types of videos
you are ALWAYS amazing. thank you so much.
Platforms like these are what makes CZcams so effin great! Thank you for the information
Thank you! We're flattered! 🙏🏼 ❤️ 😊
You guys are the best, really!! amazing and easy explanation ! ;)
Thanks a lot, TheKaveGirl Receitas Paleo! Did you know that if you like & review us on Facebook then you’ll get access to our videos a day before they’re published on CZcams? Check it out here: bit.ly/2u35D6J
Great video! Love the graphical style!
I also made a video about ecg, but more aimed towards the interpretation of an ecg.
Keep up the good work!
This is the clearest and most detailed explanation of an ECG and still I understand nothing.
You are doing absolutely phenomenal work... I wish you cover topics of embryology....Your simplifying of concept will help us a lot....thank you and keep up the good work...
You're in luck! We are covering embryology. Check it out! bit.ly/2ut5ZEJ
The explanation of how the ekg writings in the beginning with the planes and polarity was super awesome
Their videos help me a lot love them.. So Greatfull 💚💚
Awesome as always!
Thank you from my heart
you saved me !
Thanks a lot 💜💜
I love how this video only covers the basics. Yes. Just. The. Basics.
This video is fantastic! Makes it easier to remember the basics in ECG! thanks a lot!
Glad you think so! 😊
I've watched numerous explanations of this topic now and this is by far and away the best. Some people may not like it because it is complex, but simplifying the explanation would only lead to a fundamental misunderstanding.
Thank you! 🥰❤️🙏🏼
Great doctor, your videos are full of information with great contents. Very valuable for audiences.
Thank you! 🙏🏼
Osmosis is really a great learning platform. - eBio Education
its very helpful thanks for your efforts ,thank you so much
This is perfect. Thank you
thnx for helping me with my brevet finals
No doubt you explained very well! But it will be helpful for me if you make a video in which like diseased state of heart is explained on ECG. Like in cardiac arrhythmias the charge of cell and its representation on ecg
This makes so much sense
Facts that alot of med students are not good in physics and vectors make it difficult to understand or else the concepts are quite basic and this is probably the best explanation of ECG in my opinion.
thanks for this attention , really its usefull if we have abasic information.
Terrific content. Thank you.
Amazing as always
I wish you do video of orthopaedic and rheumatology. ... thanks a lot osmosis
imene imaya yeah rheumatology is an awesome subject.
We will eventually, Imene! In the meantime, you can vote for upcoming videos, see all of our unreleased videos and access tens of thousands of flashcards and quiz questions by becoming an Osmosis Prime subscriber. You can sign up for a free trial at bit.ly/2ut5ZEJ.
Wow. This gave me better understanding, been looking on youtube for 3 hours for this kind of info, thank you
We're glad that this helped! 🥰❤️🙏🏼
I was this close to dropping out of med school cuz I couldn't understand ECGs. This 8min video is wayyyyy more helpful than the 4hr lecture i had to endure on the basics of understanding an ECG. I think I'm supposed to thank you for saving me, but I'm not sure if I won't regret dropping out sooner so ;)
This is the best explanation of EKG leads I’ve ever heard. Showing this to the nurses on my ICU for sure.
Thank you and we hope this helps them as well! 😊
I appreciate the captions in several different languages.
Excellent work guys.. 👍👍
In the 90-s - US tried to bring humanitarian aid to Kyrgyzstan in terms of medications. But they airlifted medications that were about to expire in two months instead of ones that would actually help the Kyrgyz people. I will never forget this backhanded slap to this day. This kind of "help" made me realize that US and whoever stands behind them only want to increase their bottom line at the expense of everyone else.
I think we know who I'm talking about.
