concise relevant lab value chart?

Nursing Students NCLEX

Published

hi,

is anyone aware of a concise chart of the most relevant lab value ranges, to use as a study aid for nclex?

i am thinking of flipping thru 400 pages of my lab book and typing one out, just to force myself to study them ... i would only list the common ones, (AST, ALT, CBC, WBC, blah blah) leaving out obscure ones with limited applicatoin (my rationale being that perhaps nclex is less likely to ask about a truly obscure test, and more likely to expect you to know ABGs, lead levels, etc).

thanks ...

Wow, this looks like it is an old post, but I am curious if you got a response because I just asked the same question and waiting for a reply.

It looks like you didn't get an answer either and now it is a year later. Every university medical bookstore has a little "cheat sheet" laminated card with all the most common labs values on it. Hope this is not too late to help someone.

most nclex-rn comprehensive review books contain lab value information. one thing about the nclex, when lab values are given as a multiple choice answer, they are "way" off. lab values may vary by a few numbers from book to book. the goal would be to know/understand the values given in the book you choose to use and know, on the nclex, when a lab value is either too high or too low.

good luck with your studying...
