Al Haj Shah said Four Stars. great book!. "Great book!" according to K. Johnson. I love this book. I have almost 2 years RN experience, and am transitioning from telemetry to ICU. The Q & A format makes it less boring than some other books to read; and they are questions you have probably wondered about before. When I was fresh out of school, this book was almost a little too much for me; but it's great now that I have a little more experience. Like it so much that I'm probably about to buy the "cardiovascular nursing secrets" book.. "Terrific Reference Resource" according to Lotus. Very good reference resource for novice and experienced nurses. It offers detailed, current, and most importantly, concise information I and several co-workers have used during the fast pace of the ICU setting.
