Customer Reviews

Great comprehensive review on heart failure

I am a 3rd semester nursing student and I really found this book helpful. I was tired of reading my stale textbook so I read this book. It covered every aspect you need to know on the physiology of heart failure, assessment findings, treatment; it had quick quizzes, and many great animations. I recommend this book to all nursing students studying heart failure.

Easy-to-read pocket guide

This easy-to-read pocketguide is well written and visually appealing - making it a good quick read and effective reference tool. From drug charts and quick quizzes to patient exam techniques and recognizing heart failure complications this book covers the bases. I appreciated the section on "getting connected" that directed me to some good heart failure websites for professionals and for patients.
