Now COMPATIBLE with Palm OS 5
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 19 years ago
I spoke directly with the publisher and both authors by e-mail about the previous problems users had with this great book on Palm OS 5. They assured me that a newer version of the PDA program has been developed and it works fine. I've verified this myself, using both the older, incompatible version and the newer, mobipocket reader-based version on my new Zire 72. The latter version is easy to navigate and gives you immediate access to all the PDA content. If you want to be sure to get the more recent PDA version, buy direct from the publisher, or just make sure you get the mobipocket reader version with your book.
PDA Compatability???
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 21 years ago
I am now shopping for a PDA specifically for use as a CRNA. I am most impressed with microsoft-based vs. Palm-based PDA... although there is no info. on compatability with microsoft-based system. Can anyone comment on this?
Great problematic systemic anesthesia assistance
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
I purchased this book for my husband. He has been a CRNA for 20+ years. He has found this book to be an excellent source of information. By having individual systemic problems on each page with the review of problems, it's causes, and anesthesia implications; this book makes it easier in formulating your anesthesia plan. For the numerous varieties of problems that patients display, having something like this is great for any medical library.
