Publisher's summary

Demolish the NCLEX® and MedSurg Nursing.

MedSurg makes up the largest portion of the NCLEX® exam as well as nursing school courses.

Stop struggling through nursing school - here's your lifeline.

This audiobook outlines the must know and most critical information needed to comprehend, demolish, learn and understand at a faster rate without all the fluff of traditional review books. With tons of images and outlined content this is a shortcut to MedSurg success.

Body systems covered:

  • Cardiac
  • Respiratory
  • Neuro
  • Renal and Genitourinary
  • Metabolic and Endocrine
  • Musculoskeletal
  • Immunological
  • Integumentary
  • Hematologic/Oncology
  • Eye, Ear, Nose, and Throat

Literally hundreds of disease processes covered.

With each section, the nursing care, basic A&P, and medical management is also covered so that you can answer any NCLEX® review question with confidence and prepare to provide holistic nursing care.

We have literally broken down the most complex portion of nursing school and the area where more students struggle than any other, and handed it to you on a silver platter. Toss out the boring PowerPoint slides and useless handouts from your professors.

Stop trying to read 5,357 pages each night in your NCLEX® prep books - it's all right here!

With this audiobook you will not need to sift through countless books to try to find the information you need for your exams.

Please look for books other than this one.

This book is basically a woman stating a disorder followed by random, unorganized, non-specific information. It is made worse by the speaker’s monotone voice and tedious reading of the material. Lastly, there was over 2-minutes of disclaimer at the beginning of this work. Put shortly, it was two minutes saying that the author and publisher are not responsible for any of the information being completely wrong/unrelated. Understandably, medical procedures and technology change over time. That single fact doesn’t create the need to disclaim that NONE of the included Information can be trusted. Anyway, typically I’m not a writer of reviews. However, my time would have been better spent with any other resource and I wasted a credit. There is no need for you to make the same mistake.

Don't waste your money!

I don't typically leave reviews but I felt compelled to write one for this book because I really struggle to get through it. The narrator is monotone and obviously not in the medical field as she mispronounced everything! She paused in all the wrong places and it was difficult to tell when she went on to something new. I also felt the content itself was lacking also. It discussed some of the typical diseases and disorders but some were described, some weren't. Some listed etiologies, most didn't. Many times nursing interventions weren't even mentioned and it jumped around from idea to idea. You won't pass your NCLEX with this!

the author can't pronounce the words correctly

The info is great....if you like a monotone sound. The narrator can't pronounce most medical terms, including cochlear and Meniere's....to give example. Great for falling asleep to. I bought this book because I like John Haws and love his website. Unfortunately, this book doesn't hold to his normal standard, especially with the reader. :( Don't waste a credit on this!

not useful as an audiobook

don't buy, the narrator is just reading the diagrams from textbooks. these are very useful diagrams but the fact that I bought this as an audiobook, expecting it to be more of lecture style book, I was very disappointed. it sounds like siri having a stroke

Monotonous narrator+dull/factual content

Monotonous narrator+dull/factual content=disinterested listener.
This material does not contain review questions.
If you're expecting the same quality of content and explanation that you get from the NRSNG videos, I wouldn't suggest this audiobook. I'm not the kind that can learn from an emotionless monotonous voice about the ECG technicalities (e.g., it's measurements, patterns) one after the other. I just can't listen to it and get something productive out of it. But, compared to other NCLEX review audiobooks, this one was fairly priced. Although this book did not work out for me, maybe it will work for some people. The gamble is yours to make.

Need the book to follow along.

I thought this would be helpful, but you really need to have the book in order to follow along with the audio.

Worst audio book ever

The narrator of this book sounds like an old computer. The way that it's narrated causes it to not even make sense. Don't waste your time or money. I wish that I didn't.
