The CRNA contributors and I welcome constructive feedback. While there is no perfect review textbook, numerous edits, reviews and vetting by CRNAs and others resulted in the current work. The text offers students and CRNAs an opportunity to review and refresh on concepts important for professional practice. It is our pleasure to support and advance the nurse anesthesia profession. A special thanks to all who made this addition to the profession possible.Sincere regards,Shari
Fantastic literature for all levels of students and practicing CRNA's! Going back to basics and diving into the nuances of CRNA work are highlights of the text. The book is well thought out, professional in nature and will benefit those studying for certification and re-certification. Thank you for dedicating your time to writing this text!
I am currently studying for boards and purchased this book . This book is unique, as it is the only book I am aware of full of questions and explanations. After exhausting the data bank of questions in prodigy software , it is exactly the supplement I need to continue studying . I will update this review after taking boards ...
An excellent practical guide for students studying for their nurse anesthesia certification exam. A must purchase that helps students prepare for the test in an organized fashion. Or for nurses that want to brush up on the basics. Well done!
I think there may be 2 questions about the oxyhemoglobin curve that are incorrect.On page 72, #180 the question asks what the expected P50 should be when there are increased levels of 2,3 DPG. Well, I was taught that's produces during anaerobic respiration and indicates a low O2 level at the cells, pushing the curve to the right. In the rationale, you correctly wrote that the curve is pushed to the right-- however you said the P50 level would decrease and the answer marked was P50=22. Right shifted curves have a P50 of >27mmHg. So the rationale is correct, but the answer is not.Also, same thing for #183 on page 73. Question asks what the P50 would be of a patient has a temp of 35.2C. So, that would be indicative of hypotermia or at least decreased temperature, which would be a shift to the left. Your rationale says that also, however it says a left shifted curve increases P50, which is not true. Left shifted curves have a P50 level
This is a rare find for CRNA's. It's all questions and answers. This book is definitely worth the small price as the questions are just as rigorous as board type questions. This review book is a must have for SRNA's. I give praise to the authors for their efforts in writing this book. I highly recommend it for students as well as practitioners who wish to review core anesthesia content.
Great book! Perfect for the SRNA planning to study for board or the CRNA looking to review!
