 just ok December 7, 2008
This book is really not what I wanted. This book would be better for a new grad.
Not so impressed October 23, 2008

This "book" does a great job with covering the patho associated with many conditions you will find in the ICU/CCU setting. It would be a good reference to keep at home for in depth reading.
I assumed (incorrectly) that since it was a pocket guide it would cover more aspects of hands on nursing care, pharmacology, lab data. I have been an ICU nurse for 10 years, but took a baby vacation. It's great to have a reference that goes into extreme detail of multiple diseases, but I wanted something a bit less in depth for fast reference to jar my memory before calling a doctor, responding to a situation etc. This book has a few quick, helpful facts in it, but not enough to convince me to lug it around in my bag. I wound up printing off my own data & putting it in a small spiral notebook

The book is well organized and the different content areas are written in sections.It covers the basic to advanced critical care concepts and is easy-to-use. Must have for NEW nurses and a good resource for experienced nurses.

This book truly distills the essence of CCU nursing. The companion AACN Essentials of Critical Care Nursing: Pocket Handbook is also recommended as a quick reference.
