If you have ADHD, and are a visual and auditory learn like me THIS IS THE BOOK FOR YOU. This book gives has pictures (wish they were colored in) that correspond to the disease and they have pnuemonics to go along with them. "Cold and clammy, give'em some candy" for hypoglycemic and then they show them shivering. I used the book after my 2nd test and when I tried to picture the disease I closed my eyes and saw a guy shivering with sweaty palms and BAM remembered the saying. Now thats just for 1 of the 100 disease processes they made pictures for but it helps. I would get this along with Mosby Pharmacology flip book as well as the Memory Notebook of Nursing vol 1 and 2 all of which have these pictures and quirky sayings on them to help you remember what is what. Ya its a lot of money but whats cheaper re-doing a semster or buying a book that lets you past the test the first time.By Yim
These flashcards are by far the worst review material I have ever used, and especially from Mosby/Evolve. A ton of stuff is spelled wrong, at least 20% of the text is actually incorrect, and some of the diseases covered don't even include signs and symptoms. I thought that these notecards would be an easy resource to use to get ready for a HESI pathophysiology exam, but I figured out quickly this was not the case. I do not recommend buying these. If you don't believe me, just look over the respiratory section. Whatever idiot wrote and edited these put "course" instead of "coarse" when speaking of crackles. Seriously?! Or under the Hypercapnia/Respiratory Acidosis section--they said hypoventilation was a s/s of respiratory acidosis on the picture side and on the flip side it says all the opposite. I'm able to tell which one is which since we covered this in my previous semester, but for those with no previous experience, it's really confusing (and no, Hypoventilation is NOT a sign of respiratory acidosis, but it can be a cause--although those weren't listed either)By Lane
