    What are the best books/resources for intermediate-advanced EKG?

    Hello, looking for some good resources beyond the basic Dubin. From what I gather EKG maven is a nice source and The Only EKG Book You'll Ever Need is a step up from Dubin. Also, if anyone could suggest a recommended study regimen that would be much appreciated. Thank you in advance.
