Fundamentals of Measurement: Linking Evidence to Practice
Abstract:
Measurement is fundamental to science, which means that physical therapists must engage with measurement if the profession wishes to call itself scientific. However, while it is simple enough to agree that measurement is a good idea, there is more to measurement than meets the eye. Clinicians and researchers both face similar issues when it comes to interpreting the measures they collect. To do this accurately, understanding some basic concepts about measurement is necessary.

Electrocardiogram Fundamentals
An electrocardiogram (ECG) is a diagnostic tool for identifying cardiac conditions such as arrhythmias, conduction abnormalities, and myocardial ischemia.
