I have found this book an invaluable tool in studying for the CPAN certification exam. It is also a great teaching tool for new PACU nurses and for seasoned nurses working in PACU. I would recommend this book for anyone interested in expanding their knowledge base in PACU.
I highly recommend this reference for anyone studying for certification in perianesthesia nursing. Although I did use other references to increase my knowledge in areas of my weaknesses, I found that reading through this book twice, as well as studying the Standards of Care for Perianesthesia Nurses, prepared me to pass the test. The question-answer- rational format helped geer me toward finding in the question what was needed in choosing the correct answer, when two answers seemed close. This is a real key in passing these types of difficult exams. Good luck!
Extremely helpful when studying for CPAN. This also good to use as a review to keep current.
I found this book extremely helpful in preparing for my CPAN test- not only did it brush up my test-taking skills, but I also learned many new tidbits of information I had forgotten along the way!
You can not go back and forth with this book in kindle. If you are buying a reference book digitally, forget it. You need to be able to go back and forth rapidly to enhance learning and you can not do that with digital. At least I can't or I am ignorant about how to do it. It was a waste of money for me. I wish I could return it and get a real book.
This was a GREAT review book for CPAN! Because it has two answer keys for each segment, you can check your answers only, or learn from the rationales. I was able to spend more time on the areas I was weak in, and rationales were all well explained.
THis book has question and answers with rationales which I prefer when studying for a certification exam. This would be a great asset to add to studying material.
This book gave a good review of the type of questions that could be asked on the ASPAN Perianesthesia Certification tests. I felt it was a little outdated in that it included questions for both the Inpatient and Ambulatory tests mixed together.
