The information contained in this book is great and is essential knowledge for taking care of the cardiac patient. However, the ebook has many many errors. Regularly there are letters missing from words or words broken into two part or two words combined into one (examples--- 'H is' instead of 'His'; '(-adrenergic' instead of 'α-adrenergic' or even 'alpha-adrenergic'; 'epolarization' instead of 'repolarization'; 'y' instead of 'by'). This happens very often and this is just in the first chapter. It's possible that it could lead to misrepresentation of information or even be totally incorrect information. For instance, α and β receptors have different effects when activated. It is often impossible to ascertain which receptor is being discussed, without having prior knowledge of their effects when activated.Please issue an update to the ebook to correct the many errors in the text.
The best book on cardiac basics. I go to again and again. I teach cardiac nursing and this is vital to understanding the in-depth complexities. Have never not found an answer to a question in here! Great resource.
This book will make a great resource material for your unit as well as nursing student desk. It is comprehensive and evidence based with lots of resources to follow through. It should be touted as the bible of cardiac nurses! It is simply a work of devotion and knowledge based on the experience and expertise of the writers :-)
yes this really is the Coronary care/Cardiology ICU bible. This is an easily read, comprehensive, science and evidence based text that is the standard for Nurses in Crit Care/Coronary care. i used this on my post-grad crit care course and now use it as a lecturer in nursing...
good coverage of basic to advanced information for the nurse new to Cardiac surgery. It has been a great teaching tool for me with new nurses on the Cardiac team.
