Average Rating:
 Rating: - clinical assessment in respiratory careThis book is very well organized with many tables summarizing important concepts that therapists or nurses should pay attention to. I would really like to have a CD-Rom with video clips show and presentation of assessments and some of the adventisious breath sounds that are presented in the book as a visual aid. Rating: - The best of the best.This has been the best book ever, so easy to understand, explains procedures and equipment thoroughly so anyone can study on it. Great delivery time, thanks. |
