Re: Need a good ICU book

I just discovered that "ICU FAQS" DOES come in a book form:

http://buybooksontheweb.com/descript...=0-7414-1705-7

I'm starting ICU next month and plan on buying one--thanks Mark!--if you prefer I buy directly from you, that's fine, please just e-mail me your address--prefer to give you 100% of the price!

Good to have a good textbook though. The AACN
https://www.aacn.org/AACN/practiceAl...?opendocument#

is a great resource. Take their classes if you can. Attend NYI is possible too.

I found "Core Curriculum for Critical Care" very difficult when new. An experienced enthusiastic, and knowlegable instructor made all the difference for me.

Then got to the FAQs.

Re: Need a good ICU book

For those that have Thelan's "Critical Care Nursing 5th Edition", I have a question for you:

Is the depth of knowledge in this book fairly representative of what you need to know in the MICU/SICU, or is it overkill?

The reason I am wondering is because I start orientation in the MICU/SICU next week as a new grad and I am trying to assimilate this book by covering the major system alterations by spending a week on each [three cheers for vacation]...and I just want to make sure I am making an efficient use of my time.

I'll second that!
