ACLS Review

This book was specially designed to help you to pass the Advanced Cardiac Life Support Course of the American Heart Association. The format differs from all other review and test preparation texts. The text is written in rapid-fire, question/answer format. The student receives immediate gratification with a correct answer only. The text is designed to maximise your score on a test. Additional hooks are often attached to the answer in various forms, including mnemonics, evoked visual imagery, repetition and humour. Additional information not requested in the question may be included in the answer. The same information is often sought in several different questions. Emphasis has been placed on evoking both trivia and key facts that are easily overlooked, are quickly forgotten, and yet somehow always seem to appear on ACLS exams.
