Helpful summary for ACLS renewal candidates.

Helpful review freebie for individuals that already have a steady grasp of course materials.
For first timers I recommend sticking with the ACLS Provider manual by the AHA .

A supplemental book in studying BLS. It's a good book with figures that may help to understand and what to do, when you are face with such problem.

Good study guide

Good review of ACLS. Except for question 9. Doesn't give a correct answer. The question was what joules a monophysic defibilator gives. All the answers were chest compressions to breaths given. Over all a good study guide.

As an RN myself, I think this is a good review tool for getting certified and I like the straight forward approach to each section. The sample test questions are good examples.

I won this as a Goodreads Giveaway

Concise

This was an excellent resource book. I usually use AHA but this was a reliable alternative. Will use as a go to book.

I understood the first chapter and feel like I could maybe read lie detector tests now but probably not save your life. I read it for fun, not certification.

Excellent

Great material, information is concise and to the point. Better than the AHA ACLS book which tends to be condescending. Highly recommended!

Great

It has review questions, flow charts, and condensed version of ACLS. It's great if you are renewing your ACLS license. Plus I only missed one question on my test!!!

So excited that Goodreads offered this book as a kindle giveaway! Now I have access to my book at my fingertips- granted the edition is a few years old. I love that I can have this reference in my hands whenever I need it!
