Cheap quality cardiac surgery essentials book
The book that I got is fresh! Good quality and price 👌. It’s black and white paperback but it’s 35% (22$) cheaper than colored glossy pages. It’s worth it.

I am newer to cardiac surgery nursing and this book has been a great understanding to post op scenarios, how the surgeries are typically performed, medications utilized, and so much more. Takes a very heavy subject and breaks every section down nicely and is a great read!

Great for review but I did notice that the questions in the “online resource” are just copied from the end of the book chapters. The way they advertise the online “resource”, it made me think there were new questions / resources separate from the book. Overall, a great resource though.
