Description

As Australia and New Zealand’s pre-eminent textbook on the subject, Understanding Pathophysiology has supported thousands of nursing students to understand the basis of disease and how this applies to clinical practice. Pathophysiology refers to the study of disease processes, and builds on students’ understanding of anatomy and physiology. This textbook makes complex subject matter easy to learn, recall and apply to clinical practice.

Editors Dr Judy Craft and Dr Christopher Gordon are senior academics with extensive teaching experience in educating nurses.

Nebo DaVinci - a great torch

I am impressed by the quality and capability of this torch. The combination of water-tightness and zoom lamp is usually not very successful, but in this case it works. The size and brightness is just right for camping: not to big, not too bright. I also like the twist adjust for the brightness as I don't have to continually cycle through the various modes like other torches.
Price from the Paramedic Shop was good, and delivery was timely.

Amazing bit of information.

I am a volunteer in Western Australia and wanting to become a paramedic.
I wanted to know how the ECG's read and knowing what it looks like and honestly I have some knowledge in how. to read it.

Thank you
