I found this book hard to read and understand. It was a reccomended book for my nursing program, so I bought it. Later I found out that it was availible as a free e-book through my college's library. I sold my edition back. It basically describes each lab test, how it is performed, and how to prep your client. If that is what you are looking for, this book is great for that. I was looking for more of an explanation of why lab values were out of range, and interventions for correcting the abnormal labs... This book is not for that at all. I found a website that helps me tremendously and I currently only use it for my reference.
I think there are more concise lab books out there with quicker reference to what is going on and why. when doing care planning I am not going to do an entire care plan around one lab. If you are looking for a care plan to create off of one lab this is a good book, but if you are looking for quick interventions, and reasons for the lab being out of range this is not your book. It does give a detailed explanation of what is going on with the labs though.
Downloaded easily and when I was having difficulty moving it to my tablet, called the online assistance, was talked through the steps. Now I can access the book on my PC and my android tablet while teaching.
I payed for a new book and I don't like at all how this looks like. The outside of the book is a little scratched on the back and the corners are bent. I really think this was used before even if the inside looks fine and not highlighted or anything. I just don't like how it looks outside.
shipped quick. not too much to say about the book, as I have yet to use it. I am sure it will be helpful though. I don't think you need any access codes with this one
I am a nurse student and this book is really helpful for me. So far it works perfectly. I extremly recomend it.
I find this book straightforward and love that it includes nursing diagnoses for lab values.
This is a very confusing text, but has all the information you need.
