5 out of 5 stars A Wealth Of Information   August 21, 2007
 2 out of 2 found this comment useful.

this little thing has a plethora of information! and if it werent for this i wouldnt have made it through clinicals. there is alot of stuff i will probably never use and the spiral that holds it together easily slides off after flipping through a few pages. but its still very nice to keep on your persons at work. highly recommended


5 out of 5 stars KEEP it in your pocket!   February 14, 2007

This is such a great resource - I left it at the charge nurse desk so we could ALL use it and it "took a walk" - even with my name plastered all over it! Sooo-o-o, I'm buying another one because I can't live without it. Great for finding tests in the computer that the doctor ordered but you can't read exactly what he/she wrote. Alphabetical - easy to find tests. Tells what color lab tube and any special handling (if needed) and the indications for the tests (what they're looking for). Also, the significance of ABNLs in brief concise form. A must have for quick, easy-to-understand reference and a good "look-through read" just for the 'fun of it'.


4 out of 5 stars good product but....   January 26, 2007

This product is good but I think it would be greatly improved if it had the indications listed under abnormal resullts. I does explain the lab tests, how they are done & what they detect but not the indications of an abnormal lab. I still found it useful in the clinical setting esp when it isnt a routine lab.

Great resource! Handy with a ton of information packed into the pocket-sized format. Thorough and organized in a way that is extremely clear and easy to use. Explains abnormal ranges of laboratory results without giving way too much information like the big lab books do. It's great for clinicals, too!

A nice pocket size with good information. Would be more helpful to students if "causes" of high or low values were included.
