Fluids & Electrolytes Made Incredibly Easy, Sixth Edition, uses a conversational writing style to break down complex concepts and make the fundamentals of fluids and electrolytes easy to understand and put into practice. This fully revised, updated book is organized into four parts to provide comprehensive coverage of this challenging topic:

- Fluid, electrolyte, and acid-base basics
- Fluid and electrolyte imbalances
- The importance and management of imbalances in major health problems
- Treatments

Each chapter includes clear, simple explanations of health problems, definitions of key terms, illustrations that clearly explain key concepts, memory joggers, and bullets and checklists that make it easy to spot important points at a glance. Chapter summaries provide a quick review of all essential information, and special elements found throughout the text make it easy to remember key points:

- Quick-scan tables, illustrations, and flow charts focus on key information
- “Ages and stages" icons identify age-related considerations
- "Chart smart" sections outline all the points that require documentation for a specific imbalance or condition
- "It's not working" icons tell the reader what to do when standard interventions aren't getting results
- "Teaching points" focus on topics to teach patients
- "Uh-oh" icons help the reader quickly recognize dangerous or life-threatening signs and symptoms
- Quick reference appendices on fluid and electrolyte differences in pediatric and geriatric populations.

If your in nursing school you need this book. Helped me understand so much easily than lecture did.

This is my first foray into the Made Incredibly Easy series. I never really sat down and read this book front to back, but I keep going back to it over and over again because it's so useful. If you're a nursing student who takes in information best by reading it but also have trouble slogging through dry textbooks, this book is a great compromise. There are lots of cartoon illustrations to help you remember the points you need to, along with detailed tables and teaching point boxes. This is one of those books I'd suggest you buy instead of renting; so much of your curriculum is built on fluids and electrolytes.

A MUST HAVE book for critical care nurses.

Reviewed in the United States on December 4, 2016

Verified Purchase

This book is a MUST HAVE for graduate nurses and nurses new to critical care or medical surgical where your patients are on electrolyte protocols. Don't let the silly name fool you. It is spot on with the physiology. It explains the material in a very simple and visual way, which is how I learn best. I am not a new nurse but have been out of the field a long time and have returned to ICU. We are always monitoring our patients electrolytes and are on the lookout for changes in the patient's condition due to out of range values. This book covers all of the electrolytes and the signs and symptoms they can cause AND how to correct them quickly. I'm so glad I bought this book. It is up to date amd has the latest information.

Easy to Read! Light Book!

Reviewed in the United States on March 6, 2019

I had to buy this book for nursing school and it is such an easy read! It really does explain fluids and electrolytes in an understandable manner. The book is paperback and flips through pages easily that do not tear. Colors are nice and bright and this is a very light book. Recommend to anyone who is in nursing school or who wants some info on fluid balance!

As an RN for 10+ years I found this book to be extremely useful, very user-friendly and was written in a way that was easy to understand and abled to be remembered. I’m not a guru who can sift through 200 pages to find one ity-bitty mistake. Overall the book is excellent!

So glad I listened to fellow nurse classmates to purchase this book! The text is easy to comprehend and I have a better understanding of fluids and electrolytes! I also noticed other books from these authors that I will purchase in the future. The price was also great since the bookstore I went to wanted $15 more!
