The latest edition of the NRP test published in May 2011. The format is similar to previous editions and is intended to give the basic approach to resuscitation of the newborn. The objectives of the text are to standardize care of the newborn. On completion of the text one will then be able to take the online test prior to the practical course scenarios given in a live class. Fortunately the old lecture format for the knowledge section of NRP certification is a thing of the past. The positives: Basic building block approach Simple concise language Controversies discussed Science and research based on best evidence DVD with book gives great examples More emphasis this time on communication and rehersals. Negatives: This will not replace Mark Twain or Jane Austin as great writing May be tedious for those who have taken the course before Still teaches intubation skills which are difficult to learn by models.The authors deserve credit for updating a classic text that is required reading for those taking the initial or renewal course in NRP.
Whenever a new edition comes out, I like to purchase my own for constant review and referral duringthe years it is current. The DVD that comes with this book has helpful reenactments to help visualize the flow chart in most situations. As true in previous editions, the book is layed out in such a way to promote easy understanding and reinforcement.This edition definitely is worth buying due to the new changes. It's just not the same old same.Further, the time it took to get the book and the condition were both excellent.
Disappointed with DVD-rom! Book was good with better organization than previous edition BUT surprise DVD snafu. Description claims that DVD-rom compatible with Windows OR Mac. I had everything that "requirements" section listed. Imagine my surprise when it didn't work. When I called Amer. Acad. of Pediatrics, they informed me that newest upgrade of Mac systems was NOT compatible with DVD-rom. [A disclaimer might have been useful before I made purchase]. Their suggestion: use Windows or just use book portion without the DVD. Oh...OK. I'll just blink (like "I Dream of Jeanie") and conjure up an extra Windows computer. Noooo problem :o/
I like to have my own text books for classes I have to take at the hospital. That way I can refer to them any time I want. This was cheaper than purchasing thru the hospital and AHA. This is the same issue that we are using. I received the book sooner than I anticipated. I am very pleased with the NRP book and .
The new NPR 5th edition is an excellent resource for anyone needing to prepare for certification for NPR (i.e. ob/neonatal nurses, OB's, pediatricians, perinatologists, etc)It is easy to read, has repitition that allows reinforcement of principles learned throughout the text. Quizzes appear throughout to assist in retention and integration of information.The DVD-ROM included in the book is improved over the last one. For the visual learner, this is most helpful. The DVD-ROM includes, computer generated images, scenarios, and the book quizzes as well. An excellent adjunct to the book, that can be used as a stand-alone review.There are a few discrepancies between the book and the DVD-ROM, but overall the set together is worth the price.There is also the availability to take the NPR written examination on-line and then locate an instructor to complete the practical sessions. This is helpful for any busy practitioner when needing to schedule this exam, since the written component has close to 100 questions.
Though their evidence based practices are easily ten to fifteen years behind the rest of the world, this book is fairly concise and easy to use. If you haven't taken NRP classes with Karen Strange and Newborn Breath? I wouldn't recommend using this book with ANY OTHER class. Look her up, bring her to your area. You won't ever certify with another instructor.
Purchased 2 for my NRP students, and they arrived in a timely manner. Please be aware, in 2016 the, AAP is coming out with the 7th edition. All the answers to the online test are in the book, but not necessarily listed in the "Key Points" section of each chapter.
Items arrived in very good condition, the books were perfect.The reason for a 3 star is the following: In the product description it was not mentioned that "For use in India only" was printed across the front - and rear covers. Also, typically this comes with the accompanying CD, these did not and I do not recall that fact being mentioned in the listing.Otherwise, these are fine.
