Average Rating: out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Definitive reference for ACLS and ECC
I bought this handbook along with my materials for ACLS, and have found this an invaluable reference for AHA ACLS and ECC. The complete algorithms are included, and the pre-hospital and in-hospital care sections clear and easy to locate. The drug references are useful for remembering ACLS/ECC drugs, but I wouldn't use them as a primary reference tool for the drugs involved overall. All in all an excellent and definitive reference fro ACLS providers and ECC.


Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Guidelines 2005
I found this book hard to follow and nothing is tabbed for easy access in an emergent situation which is what it is supposed to do. If you prepare for ACLS by reading the book that is given with the class you will find that is all you need. If you want a refresher for ekg rhythm strips or a tabbed book look for davis notes for ecg.


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - GREAT BOOK
I purchased this pocket guide as it is a required book for EMSTI Paramedic School Jan. 2007 class. This book was released in 2005 but it is only updated once every 5 years so it is still good. Great book, have the info you need for the drugs required for class.


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Handy for Residency
This Handbook contains in synopsis form most of the information included in the basic ACLS course, including all of the main algorithms. Also, it includes the BLS algorithm and short sections in the back that include PALS and Neonatal Resuscitation info. Of note, the algorithms included for the ACLS and BLS are the newly revised AHA versions (the ones that went into effect on July 1, 2006), so you don't have to worry about wasting your money purchasing a book with out-of-date algothims and information. ...
