I purchased the kindle version for my iPad/ iPhone. I needed the information in the ICU.The author does a great job in explaining difficult respiratory physiology in a organized way.I use this book on a daily basis. Even better as a kindle format, no ,ore heavy books to shove in my pocket!
This is a great book if you already have some sort of clue about mechanical ventilation. It would be a great review book! I was starting from square one, so it was hard to understand at first, but I found it helpful. I like the outline format and how it gets to the point!
I used it in my ICU rotation and it was right to the point. It was an excellent choice. It even fits my lab coat pocket too. I highly recommend it to anyone in residency.
Excellent, easy to follow, and well written book. I love the explanations making the content and the concepts very simple to grasp and learn. Highly recommend it to inspired residents. Well done!
Used this during my intern year for ICU. HIGHLY recommend this book. It makes ventilation quite easy. Goes over most common vent settings, allowing you to advance after you have the basics. This is all you really need for vents. Quick read, short chapters, easy to understand. Don't think twice and get this book!!!
Short and precise book. Good for everyone who wants to learn about mechanical ventilation. Easy to understand and you can use this knowledge in your everyday life in hospital.
Very concise text for someone who already familiar with the subject. Not a detailed textbook. Not a reference book. Many details are missing.
This book did not make me a ventilator whiz like I'd hope (typical gunner-wannabe medical student behavior), but it was an excellent foundation for more in-depth material that would have otherwise gone directly over my head.
