5.0 out of 5 stars A MUST own!, April 4, 2000
This review is from: Mosby's Diagnostic and Laboratory Test Reference (Paperback)
I'm a 6th year medical student and I was looking for a book that could give me a quick, easy, yet complete method of evaluating laboratory exams right on the spot. With this book I got that and much, much more. Right from the book's size and weight to the complete and easy to read information, this book is done just right (it even comes with a waterproof cover to prevent the book from being easily damaged). It includes basic stuff like blood test and urinalysis to more advanced stuff including arthroscopy and mediastinoscopy. The book has it all. For each entry you get: type of test, normal findings (includes values), test explanation and related physiology, interfering factors, procedure and patient care, abnormal findings (lists the diseases that must be suspected); and in the cases that apply gives contraindications, and home care considerations. It has your basic index, plus a list of tests by type (eg. urine tests) and another list of tests by body system (eg. nervous system). All in all, the decision is a no-brainer, this book is a MUST for any medical student or physician. A 5-star rating is an understatement. Highly recommended!

5.0 out of 5 stars Simply the best, September 15, 2001
By L. Williams (Raliegh, NC United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Mosby's Diagnostic and Laboratory Test Reference (Paperback)
Honestly, I don't give many books 5 stars, nor do I give many glowing reviews, but Mosby really did an outstanding job putting this book together. The format is friendly, the data is accurate, and the tests are all relevant in hospital or clinical settings. Great book and an invaluable reference for nurses and laboratorians alike!

5.0 out of 5 stars Picky Book buyer loves it!!, November 14, 2001
By Beth Wright "just a mom" (Daytona Beach, FL USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Mosby's Diagnostic and Laboratory Test Reference (Paperback)
I felt that this was the most complete and EASY to use Lab book for nursing students, such as I. It even suggests what abnormals can mean clinically.
