Where serious clinicians come to elevate their practice—and find confidence when needed most!
If you read ECGs, this course will change the way you practice!
Most “advanced” ECG courses simply repackage introductory material and hope you won’t notice. This Masterclass is different. It assumes you already know the basics—and then takes you far beyond them.
Are you SURE you are as good at reading ECGs as you THINK you are?
I have been teaching advanced ECG interpretation for Medicus of Houston since 2011. It has been my experience that most physicians received little or no formal training in ECG interpretation and greatly overestimate their ECG skills.
You should already know how to READ ECGs - I will teach you to INTERPRET them!
A patient whose P waves are encroaching on the downslope of the T waves doesn't just have a first degree AV block - they have atria trying to contract against closed AV valves! What will become of that atrial blood?
A Truly Advanced Curriculum... NOT a warmed-over review of basics!
Typical advanced ECG courses revisit foundational material. This Masterclass is designed for clinicians who already understand the fundamentals and are ready to move decisively beyond them. Remember: when someone’s LIFE is in YOUR hands… introductory knowledge and skill just isn’t good enough!
Why this matters for your real‑world practice
- If you rely on memorized patterns, you don’t truly understand what you’re seeing. And when a pattern doesn’t look exactly like the one you memorized, you will miss it.
- You were trained to recognize problems under ideal conditions. But real patients rarely present under ideal conditions.
- If you cling to the STEMI paradigm, you will miss ~40% of complete occlusions that urgently need revascularization. Those patients don’t get a second chance.
- You can spot the obvious MI—but can you spot the subtle one? The one that doesn’t “follow the rules”? The one that kills people quietly?
- Most dysrhythmias don’t have names. If you only know the named ones, you might pass a test—but you may fail in real‑life situations.
This Masterclass teaches you to think, not memorize. To interpret, not guess. To diagnose, not hope.
Active participation - you are not just an audience!
This is not a lecture. It’s not a YouTube video. It’s not a passive experience.
You will spend 10 full hours actively interpreting complex ECGs—with Dr. Jerry W. Jones guiding, prompting, challenging, and supporting you every step of the way.
What this means for your learning
- You will never get stuck or embarrassed—Dr. Jones keeps you moving forward.
- Mistakes are not just allowed—they’re celebrated. They mean you’re learning.
- “I don’t know” is treated as a potential for growth, not failure.
- Nothing in a book or video prepares you for the real thing. Participation is the only path to mastery.
This is the closest you can get to real‑time clinical decision‑making without being in the emergency department.
small class size | more attention!
Large auditorium lectures are designed for convenience, not mastery.
In this Masterclass
- Ask questions anytime – no need to wait until the end of the presentation
- Get personalized guidance – Dr. Jones is available during breaks and after lunch
- Interact directly with your instructor
- Stay engaged from start to finish
- Develop discussions with the other participants
A small class means you’re not just another face in the room—you’re an active participant. With fewer clinicians, every question gets airtime, every case gets dissected, and every learner gets direct, personalized feedback. The pace is sharper, the dialogue richer, and the learning deeper. It’s the fastest way to turn complex ECG patterns into confident, real‑world decisions.

With our compliments...
Every participant receives the materials needed to properly read and interpret ECGs during the course:
• Soft-cover Course Manual with lecture notes and ECG examples
• ECG calipers for accurate measurement
• 3× magnifying lens for detailed waveform analysis
• Straight-edge strip for aligning ECG deflections

- Groups of 3 or more receive generous discounts
- Returning participants receive special reduced rates
Bring colleagues. Bring your team. Build a shared foundation of advanced ECG competence.
Please Note: A returning participant cannot be included as part of a group.
If you read ECGs...
this course is not optional.
AI will not save you. It will give you probabilities—not diagnoses. You are still medicolegally responsible for the final interpretation. And AI is not always correct.
Your patients deserve a clinician who can verify the diagnosis with confidence.
This Masterclass gives you that confidence.
As a reminder...
The reduced enrollment fees cannot last forever. Take advantage of them while you can because they will increase later this year.
WELCOME TO HOUSTON, TEXAS... YA'LL!
The first word spoken by a human standing on the moon was “Houston… Tranquility Base here. The Eagle has landed.”
Houston is one of the most culturally diverse cities in the United States—home to residents who speak more than 145 languages—making it an easy, welcoming place for travelers from around the world. As the city that helped launch the first words from the moon, Houston blends global culture with a spirit of exploration.
Houston has two international airports: the George Bush Intercontinental Airport and Hobby International Airport. Both airports provide domestic airline service throughout the US. Bush Intercontinental Airport is by far the larger of the two and has extensive service to North, Central and South America as well as Europe, Asia and the Middle East. Hobby Airport, in addition to its domestic routes, serves Mexico, Central America and the Caribbean regions.
Both airports can provide limousine service directly to the hotel. Of course, taxis and Uber are available.
Our hotel is located in an upscale shopping and dining area of Houston.
