VO-02 ACCURACY AND CONFIDENCE OF ELECTROCARDIOGRAM INTERPRETATION AMONG DOCTORS WORKING AT THE EMERGENCY MEDICINE DEPARTMENT OF A TERTIARY HOSPITAL IN TANZANIA

Abstract

Electrocardiograms (ECGs) are essential for diagnosing and managing critically ill patients. Emergency Physicians must develop proficiency in ECG interpretation to ensure accurate patient assessment. In Tanzania, there has been no formal assessment across different medical cadres to evaluate ECG interpretation accuracy, hindering the identification of common errors and challenges faced by General Practitioners (GPs) and residents.
