Can't say enough good about this book. An ABSOLUTE NECESSITY if you're new to critical care. New nurse or already a nurse going back into critical care. Don't let the cheesy title fool you. It covers all of the physiology behind each learning objective and includes nursing considerations. It explains the rational for each type of monitoring and different types of catheters. Especially great if you're a visual learner like me. Even if you aren't visual learning helps you retain more and understand material much better. This book contains so many great pictures after each learning section such as how to zero the line transducer and what the different lines look like and how to use them. I highly recommend this book. It's concise to the point but doesn't leave anything out. I am an RN returning to cardiovascular critical care after a long time off. I feel this book will more than adequately prepare me to perform on the job.

I can't over emphasize how great this book is for a visual learner. It isn't going to expand your knowledge base if you already understand hemodynamics in a functional capacity, but for visual learners it is a great tool and reference.

Great book. Used this to prep for my career in the open heart intensive care unit.

Has been able to provide excellent graphics and terms that are easy to study.New nurses and seasoned nurses should use this book.

Being a new nurse working ICU this definitely helps me get a head start
