User’s Reviews

Okay, let’s just get this out there…I’ve been a nurse for almost 10 years and I’ve previously purchased the last 3 editions of this manual. It’s a FANTASTIC resource for nurses. One of the best. Do I recommend getting it? Yes, without hesitation.

However, this edition isn’t as good as the previous ones for two major reasons. 1) all the clinical procedures have been removed from the text and can only be accessed via the online edition. That’s annoying and cheap if you ask me. It’s always been in every other edition. 2) For a book with a copyright date of 2019, it should have the up to date hypertension guidelines. It doesn’t. The book states that Stage 1 hypertension is anything greater than 140/90 when we know that it was changed in 2017 to 130-139/80-89 and 140/90 is now considered Stage 2. I bring this up because in the last edition, they didn’t have the correct hypertension guidelines either claiming that the newer guidelines weren’t ready during publication time. So, what’s the reason this time? That’s two editions in a row now that the hypertensive guidelines are wrong. Hypertension is one of the most common maladies we will face. I just wish it was up to date.
