o.k. y'all. I need a good cardiac nurse assessment book. I went to barnes and noble for like the dummy serie or made incredibly easy series...they didn't have any in stock. Do they even make these books? If not could some one please suggest a good down to earth book that won't be incredibly over my head? It would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

I don't know if they make specifically what you are looking for. I'm also not sure exactly what it is you're looking for. I do know that I was shopping once for either a good pathophys book or a cardiac book and wound up with something that was both, and neither: "Diseases" from springhouse publishing. It's straightforward, relatively compact for a nursing book, and has a ton of good info in it.

Relating to cardiac assessment, well everybody has a heart. So cardiac isn't just cardiac, it's neuro, pulmonary, fluid balance, VS, pain, and cardiac.
