This is a spin-off of the very popular Nurse's Survival Guide. It will present information that a nurse or a nursing student who is working with a pediatric patient may need to know but not necessarily memorize.
I have used this pocket guide in clinical situations with students and have found it to be a great resource for pediatric facts. I have used it for teaching my students lab interpretation, finding and calculating appropriate medication dosages (yes, it even has I. V. fluid compatabilities), and for quick reviews of DDST and growth and development. So far, I have found everything in the guide that I needed to reference. Normally, I would need 2 to 3 books for this purpose. I am recommending it to my students to purchase as a supplement for their pediatric rotation next fall. I am very impressed with the ease of finding information and the wide range of topics covered.
