Any text like this should employ a panel of those who have actually had cardiac surgery. I felt it missed a bit of that point of view that would help smooth out the patient care, such as the customary protocol of quickly pulling out lead wires 7 days after surgery when tissue has had time to secure them to the heart tissue. The peritoneal tube removal is not even that bad. Something's just not right about some of the things, although I appreciate the detailed clinical view and have great confidence in those procedures to keep the patient well and alive.
Used this to study for my Cardiac Surgery Certification with CCRN (CSC). Great resource! Touched on every topic on the exam.
This book has rich amount of protocols,which lead you correct therapy.As Johns Hopkins is one of the leaders of Cardiac surgery,you can touch knowledge of them
