This book is a very concise, easy to read, well written reference to have around the ICU, step-down, etc. It is perfect for someone new to the speciality or if you are looking for another way "to skin the cat". Covers everything that could come up post-operatively. I highly reccommend it.

I began my preceptorship as a nurse in a small open heart ICU with this book as my reference. It was suggested to me by one of our surgeons who told me that if I could read the whole book I could do his job. I have studied the book extensively and it has become my most valuable tool in learning my new job. I highly recomend it for anyone working in cardiovascular surgical units!

For all my collegues and nurses just begining shifts in post-Cardiac Surgery Intensive Care....... this is your Compass for managing patients in the early hours after operation specially in black nights when senior experts in the field are at home sleeping ......

As an educator, this book is always within reach on my desk, and I refer to it often. It provides clear, concise information for both the experienced, and not so experienced, practitioner.
