  ABSTRACT: Effective interpretation of electrocardiograms (ECGs) is a critical skill for healthcare professionals, especially in emergency settings. This study assessed the diagnostic abilities of 200 final-year medical students and young doctors in ECG interpretation. Subsequently, based on the study findings, a practical checklist was developed, and a comprehensive book entitled “Critical ECG in Emergencies” was authored by the researchers. The checklist provides cognitive aids and serves as a systematic guide to enhance ECG interpretation in urgent situations. The study revealed a need for improved confidence in interpreting critical ECGs among the participants. The checklist offers promise for reducing diagnostic errors and improving patient outcomes. Further research is required to evaluate its impact on daily practice and patient care, while the book provides valuable resources for healthcare professionals in emergency medicine.
