Synopsis

Don't let ICU Nurses bamboozle you. Hemodynamics are simple. For the beginning or moderately experienced ICU nurse, there is no better explanation of Hemodynamics. Is that claim outrageous? Consider the following: -Authored by a board certified cardiologist (for accuracy) and a nurse educator (for clarity). -Subject is covered in 56 illustrated pages, with brief, easy-to-understand explanations. -One simple diagram (below) is used throughout the book to illustrate normal heart function, and 11 states of cardiac and vascular disease. -There is no assumption of previous cardiac knowledge or experience. This book will prepare you to pass the hemodynamic section of hospital ICU tests and to answer related questions during the interview with your nurse manager.

About this title

About the Author:

Malcolm Rosenberg, RN began his career as a nurse and nurse educator after receiving his Associates Degree from Broward Community College in 1989. He has worked in many medical and surgical areas including orthopedic, telemetry, oncology, as well as the ICU, recovery and emergency rooms. Prior to becoming a nurse, Malcolm was trained as a mechanical engineer and worked for 10 years in aircraft design and manufacturing. In that setting he began to appreciate the value of using simple diagrams and cartoons to learn and communicate complex dynamic processes. That learning was put to use when Malcolm was asked to teach continuing education courses for hospital nurses. He decided to create these courses primarily through the use of simple sketches and a light-hearted approach to learning. Since he wanted his students to understand the content without being overly concerned with note taking, he put together handouts for the students of exactly what was on the overhead projector. Those packages then became these books. Malcolm Rosenberg lives in Florida with Sandy, his adoring wife, Sandy's mom, Flo, their son, Alex, two dogs and three cats. His older son Craig lives in Georgia with his wife Tara. Please feel free to contact Malcolm via email: malcolmrosenberg1@gmail.com or by phone: 954-802-7539.
