Simple as ABG
"ABG" stands for Arterial Blood Gases. It's the single best test for any critically ill or injured patient. It's painful. It's expensive. And, arterial blood can be tough to draw. Yet, no other test tells more about a patient's minute by minute respiratory/metabolic status.
But, interpreting "ABG" results has always been very complicated-until now. By using simple graphs, lots of pictures, and about a 9th grade reading level, two men have finally made understanding ABG's easy.
Dr. Larry Romane is a 4 times board-certified ER doc. He's taught nurses, physicians, paramedics, and respiratory therapists. His friend, Ted Heyman, is a computer guy who once wrote software that brought ATM's to small banks.
Together they make this complex test simple - "Simple as ABG". In fact, students like you improved their ABG comprehension from 55% to over 93% just by reading it's hundred pages. And now, so can YOU !....
(A device that displays full color is ESSENTIAL to understanding this book, e.g. a PC, Mac, or iPad would be perfect.)
