## Description

ECG Guide is a comprehensive Chrome extension designed for medical professionals and students to master the skill of reading ECG strips. It offers side-by-side comparisons of normal ECG patterns alongside various abnormalities such as Ventricular Fibrillation, Atrial Flutter, and Heart Block. This visual comparison helps users detect subtle changes and enhance their diagnostic accuracy.

Beyond pattern recognition, the extension provides detailed information about the causes of ECG abnormalities, relevant medical scenarios, treatments, and possible complications. Though highly educational, ECG Guide is intended strictly as a study and revision tool and should not replace professional diagnosis or treatment. This makes it an essential learning aid for anyone looking to become proficient in ECG interpretation.
