5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent resource for critical care nursing, July 7, 2000

Lynn Macksey RN, BSN, CCRN (Orlando, FL USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Core Curriculum for Critical Care Nursing, 5e (Paperback)

The Core Curriculum for Critical Care Nursing is a concise, thorough review of each body system. Each major chapter not only outlines a thorough review of A&P, it also goes into common disease states within each system and even discusses nursing concerns with each disease. I have used this book for several years personally, and my director has one in the ICU for a resource at work. I highly recommend this book.

This review is from: Core Curriculum for Critical Care Nursing, 5e (Paperback)

This is an expensive book, however a good resource to keep on hand. This book is set up as an outline. This is not a detailed text covering all the ins and outs of pathophysiology on the cellular level. It does cover pathophysiology but set up in an outline form, not a standard textbook. Easy to read and grasp information.
