This book was helpful to me.

Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 16 years ago

I worked as a staff pharmacist in a retail pharmacy for 7 years. After taking a new job in a long term care pharmacy, I found myself needing a review of IV therapy. I bought this book and it was helpful to me as I transitioned into a more clinical position.

Helpful Reference and Learning Tool

I own the paperback 3rd edition of this book which I purchased to self-study before my IV therapy validation in nursing school. I found this book extremely easy to read and understand despite the fact I had no previous knowledge of IV therapy. The chapters include a basic introduction that covers fluid & electrolytes, IV solutions, documentation and patient teaching. Other chapters cover: peripheral IV's, central IV's, IV medications, transfusions, chemotherapy, parenteral nutrition. There are also short quizzes at the end of each chapter. The appendices includes a practice exam, drug compatibility, example flow sheet for documenting, glossary and also additional references. The pictures, diagrams, and charts are EXCELLENT! Although this book goes MUCH more in depth than I currently need for my med/surg class I have used this book several times as a reference.

I'm a Senior nursing student and this book is WONDERFUL!!! Although we learn a lot in nursing school, IV therapy is one thing that we all seem to have to learn "on the job". I was so confused until I found this book!!! It explains everything (and I mean EVERYTHING) in very easy to understand terms (probably good even for beginning nursing students). I have recommended it to all of my fellow nursing students, and many others find it as helpful as I have!
