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

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.

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!
