Really love these cards. They have helped me in OB, Pharm, and Fund. Great illustrations, and mnemonics, easy to read and follow and on the back of the pics they have nurse interventions and considerations listed! Only wish I had one for every subject!

I bought these thinking I would be using them like crazy, but I ended up not using them at all. I still think they are great reference cards regardless. The front has pictures to help you remember whatever the subject matter is your looking at, and the back has information about the topic. I guess for me personally, I just didn't utilize them often enough.

Admittedly I'm bias, as I like all the notecard series from Mosby.I know some people complain that it does have all the information, or it isnt detailed enough. Thats not the point of these. They are meant to be a simple and brief outline of the essential information. In that regard, they are fantastic.TO add to that great information outline, the cards themselves are build on very thick and sturdy cardboard. I dont worry about durability. The Fluid and Electrolytes cards I've had in my backpack since day one of school, and they don't show any wear.My only suggestion: If you're looking for a resource for more extensive information, I'd go with the "Made Incredibly Easy" series of books. They are a bit more detailed, but still do a good job of keeping it simple.

I love the memory notebook series. Yes, they are a bit silly but that's exactly why you remember the material. These cards helped me pass my NCLEX predictor exam as well as the NCLEX itself. I recommend them!!

Mosby's note cards are the best! I was taking OB in nursing school and used this book a lot to help simplify concepts. I do wish it had more specific problems and was less broad over certain subjects. It's perfect for visual learners because of the cute pictures. If you remember the picture you can "see" the symptoms associated with certain illnesses. I highly reccommend this book to anyone needing an OB refresher, pocket reference, or just for a collection!

These cartoons make learning what I need so much easier! I am using them to pre-study for peds and ob nursing classes this next semester ( and my future peds nursing career). I know that I will definitely be more prepared and will share this with my nursing friends to help them as well. :)

This was a wonderful companion for my OB/Peds class/clinical. It followed exactly what was in my text and what the teacher pinpointed as must know important details for our tests and NCLEX. It works well for me as I am a visual learner so when I take the test I see in my mind the picture associated with the words on the test. Plus it is pocket sized so you can keep it in your scrub pocket for reference while doing your clinical rotations.

The illustrations are great for the learning aspect, very funny yet concise and concrete with the basis of the information needed for learning the OB/Maternity portion of RN school.
