As a respiratory therapy instructor I found this to be an excellent tool for all my students. It is easily understood and arranged in a logical, helpful manner. Many times books are orientated with the assumption that the student has some basis of knowledge of the subject, this one teaches the calculations in completenessand and gives excellent examples. I have enjoyed using David Chang's books because they are written for students without making assumptions as to the student's understanding of the topic and students learn from them. It's not often I get excited about a workbook, but this one is well worth having.
This is an absolute fabulous book by David Chang! I am a Respiratory Care Educator in a Cummunity College Program and I have witnessed continual problems with students being unable to perform the basic math associated with respiratory care equations and calculations. I am so impressed with this particular book that I am going to REQUIRE each student in my classes to purchase this book as a mandatory part of the course! I have already started using specific sections in my class and the students have given me positive feedback regarding the ease of use and overall help with these calculations. Thank you David Chang for providing our students with a great tool for success!
I've used this book to help me with all the RTT calculations. Without this book, my GPA would be lower. So if you are a RTT student, this book is a MUST!
This workbook is informative however it provides limited practice calculation questions. Not enough practice question to test newly acquired skills
Meat and Potatoes for Knowing Critical Calculations.Even if you do not commit them to memory going through the book is very helpful.
Has all resp calculations. Perfect for students and practicing therapists that need to review also! I definitely reccomend this book!
It was not perfect as describe on the site. Yet but than my college bookstore. It is usable and I like it. Thank you.
OUTSTANDING College text. Should be a mandatory text for Respiratory Care Students. Highly recommended.
