Anatomy and Physiology:
That You Can Use at the Bedside!

Most of us learned our anatomy, physiology, and pathophysiology in nursing school where we were focused primarily on passing the class. We memorized, we studied, but we quickly forgot.

You learn differently now. With years of nursing experience, your brain has learned to classify your professional information into “file folders” based on your clinical experiences. Now, when you go back to learn these concepts, your brain will put the information into the correct “folder” to use the next time you encounter a patient with that problem. In other words, you will retain the information now that you have a way to organize it.

Understanding the essential concepts of cardiac anatomy, physiology, and pathophysiology will help you find patient complications faster and respond to them more appropriately.

***Please note***
The In Detail program you are buying is not an ordinary book, or audio CD, or even a video. It is all three! The four CD program contains audio files that will play in your CD player in your home, car, or portable device; but load them into your computer and you get the video enhancements that will help you really SEE the content. And, of course you get the workbook too; for easy note taking and review.
