5.0 out of 5 stars At A Glance Part II, May 16, 2001

This review is from: Handbook of Nurse Anesthesia (Paperback)

After reviewing the first edition, I think I would be remiss if I did not review this second edition.

As with the first one this is also a must have for all practicing clinical anesthetists. Take to the OR with you, take it on vacation with you. It is very informative and the author seems to now exactly what he is talking about.

I have researched this author and find that he is very well thought of and respected in our community. Thank you.

Quick review when you don't have time for textbooks. Helpful reminder of anesthesia implications in the OR. Great for SRNA clinicals.

5.0 out of 5 stars Knowledge At A Glance, May 15, 2001

This review is from: Handbook to Accompany Nurse Anesthesia (Paperback)

I purchased this book and found it extremely useful in my clinical practice. I found the information to be concise and easy to locate in the operating room. I highly recommend this handbook; it is a must have for any practicing anesthetist. I also did not find any of the errors that another reviewer mentions, they should look again.
