Don't know if anyone might be able to help - but worth an ask I thought?!

I've just finished my first year's training as a Paramedic, and I am staring my final year in the face. I am happy that I am at a good standard at all the basics - but year two now comprises some pretty heavy detail on ALS drugs, and lots of ECG interpretation.

I would like to think that I can already spot the basics of abnormal ECG's - things like stemi's, L/R bbb, bi/tri geminy, AF, WPW and some heart blocks, plus the basic shockable / non-shockable rhythms like VF, VT, etc.

But I am obviously MILES away from being any kind of expert, let alone even mildly competent cardiology wise.

I was advised to get (as well as some study books) a phone app to help with ECG interpretation. However, I spent ages this afternoon on the Android / Google Play store, and there are literally hundreds of ECG apps - some free, some up to £80 yikes

So this is a very long-winded way of asking - does anyone have a good ECG interpretation app on their Android device, and if so, what is it please?!

TIA!
