The only pocket guide to cover CPR, ACLS, and PALS!

Here’s all the information you need to respond to cardiac emergencies in one pocket-sized book! This quick-reference guide provides easy-to-access coverage of all three levels of care—infant, child, and adult—plus listings for all drugs required for ACLS and PALS in both adult and pediatric dosages.

You’ll also find the latest in PALS concepts and protocols and the ACLS guidelines. Critical-thinking exercises and megacodes make it an ideal resource to help you prepare for certification and recertification exams.

Waterproof, write-on/wipe off pages are HIPAA-compliant and great for on the go.

 

"Awesome study tool for clinical practitioners and students! Lightweight and easy to carry in your pocket. Tabs for quick access to ECGs, emergency drugs, megacodes, etc. I carry this pocket guide with me to work daily. It has the latest ACLS, CPR, and PALS guidelines at your fingertips. As an RN and nursing professor I have purchased many study guides but this is one of the best and I recommend it for my students."
