Mastering ACLS 2nd Edition Summary:By Springhouse
Mastering ACLS, Second Edition will help health care professionals successfully complete the American Heart Association's Advanced Cardiac Life Support course and certification exam. This quick-review outline-format study guide covers the core knowledge and skills needed for ACLS--including detailed, illustrated life support techniques, core case studies, arrhythmias, defibrillation procedures, I.V. techniques, cardiovascular pharmacology, myocardial infarction, and special resuscitation situations. Now in full color, this edition features 200 illustrations and algorithms, expanded chapter quizzes, a comprehensive test, expanded information on automated external defibrillators, and additional case scenarios in the Megacode and other chapters. A new appendix reviews Basic Cardiac Life Support guidelines.
Summary: Good, directed ACLS review Rating: 4 This book is an excellent introduction and refresher for Advanced Cardiac Life Support guidelines. Not only that, it also gives many helpful descriptions and illustrations for techniques used in the care of a broad range of patients. For example, it gives an exhaustive review of IV placement, including the pros and cons of different locations. It reviews specifics of airway management and illustrates different devices available (eg, ET tube, laryngeal mask airway, bag mask valve device). It thoroughly reviews ACLS drugs and cardiac drugs in a high-yield manner. While its intended audience is RNs (for example, mixing instructions for drugs are plentiful), as an MD I found it quite handy, and ACLS students of any stripe should find it useful. There are a few weaknesses. While the end-of-chapter question banks are good preparation for the ACLS exam, many questions have equivocal stems or answers. Therefore they could use more rigourous review for accuracy and clarity. Also, the text and charts occasionally have misspellings which detracts from the otherwise professional appearance and tone of the book. I read Mastering ACLS in a matter of four hours, skipping the more mundane or already known sections. I am happy to say that I did well during the ACLS course I took the next day. My retention of critical material was unquestionably reinforced by this fine review. I am sure its teaching points will improve the care of patients as well. password: LEK4R Please select one mirror to download
