4.0 out of 5 stars
A Comprehensive Overview of the PACU,
By A Customer
This review is from: Core Curriculum for Perianesthesia Nursing Practice, 4e (Paperback)
This book is very organized and through review of the practice of postanesthesia nursing. Multiple surgical specialties are reviewed and nursing considerations are relavent to bedside practice.The review of anesthetic agents, muscle relaxants and conscious sedation is comprehensive and complete.There is also an excellent review of ACLS and PALS. It is an excellent review for both the experienced PACU nurse as well as the new nurse. Also the questions included at the end of each chapter are helpful when studying for CPAN certification.

5.0 out of 5 stars
great for review and reference.,
By renan r parawan (Brownsville, Tx United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Core Curriculum for Perianesthesia Nursing Practice, 4e (Paperback)
I passed my CPAN exam using this book primarily. Very organized and direct to the point. The pharmacology part of it helped me a lot. Caution on mg vs Microgram on dosages part 3 chapter 16, troponin I normal range of < 3.1 page 280 , most references use < 0.6-1.5, and the wave forms on page 705 and page 703 has the labels the other way around. Aside from the above that I could remember, I rate the book at 5 stars (0-5 scale). I even enjoyed studying the endocrine / hormonal topics of the book - I usually dont. I got a > 100+ score above group average on the exam and I know this book has a lot to do with it. Thank you Kim and all your associates who helped you on this book.
