Ventilator Modes Made Easy: An Easy Reference for RRT's, RN's, and Medical Residents

This is a good overview book on the various types of mechanical ventilator modes. Tells the critical elements of each, explains well how they differ from basic CMV. Won't go into advanced detail, but for an RT student who might be struggling to understand the modes, a Nurse who wants to understand them better, or someone working in a rural area or someone who has been out of the field a while and returning, is a good overview of ventilator modes you might not be familiar with. Well written, easy to understand.

I just barely started reading this book and it has made things so much clearer to me. It will be a good quick resource for when I need refreshing.

Buena calidad

Good short and sweet for ICU nurses, Ill be lending it around to my orientees for awhile!

I am a respiratory therapy student and this book definitely helped me in understanding vents.

It lacked detail. It is a good starting point for an introduction to ventilator modes, but I found online simulations to be far more interesting, with feedback.

Very good book, easy to read and understand. I am new to the ICU and this helped.

This book has definitely given me a better understanding and working knowledge as a RT student. I now longer feel lost during vent management.

good revisional material, it would be better if there are diagram or illustration. So the downside, this book is only good for ppl who are already using ventilators

This book has really helped me grasp some concepts I was having trouble with and is a quick reference for me with ventilator use. In our small ER department there is infrequent ventilator use and like the fact that I can get my Kindle app or Kindle out quickly if I am needing assistance.

This is only a brief description of only a few of the ventilation modes we can use today. Too simple.
