Horrible and incomplete

What could have made this a 4 or 5-star listening experience for you?

Actually addressing issues to pass an ACLS exam. You can't discuss heart rhythms in a audiobook. You can't read charts in an audiobook. You CAN discuss treatment plans including pharmacology and mitigating factors.

What could MSN and Jane John-Nwankwo RN have done to make this a more enjoyable book for you?

Make it appropriate and effective for passing ACLS

How could the performance have been better?

Someone familiar with medical terminology and better cadence should have done the reading.

Any additional comments?

Seriously, how can you write an ACLS manual without a single word about pharmacology and twenty minutes about BLS???? Where is capnography and hypothermia???? Ugh. All useful study points are absent from this utter waste of time.

Information very outdated!

Such a let down. The information was old from 2010. Save your time and credit s.

Stand Alone?

The information content appears correct. It follows the format used by the American Heart Association. So far, so good. However; during the course of the presentation, the narrator starts to reference visual material which is not present. This creates a major problem. Several other Audible books I have purchased include an associated pdf file for reference at the appropriate time. That should have been included, but was not.

Informative

The biggest problem with this book is the narrator. He clearly doesn’t know the correct pronunciation of the words. Someone needs to review his words and make the necessary corrections. If no one caught his mistakes during production they need to find other work. Next up is the the references to below considering there is no below since this is an audio recording. Perhaps they should also offer a verbal description of things that are visual in the printed version. But then it would give the narrator greater opportunities to mess up. This is a textbook and therefore needs to be adjusted for verbal communication. It does offer some useful information.

Awful

RN for 13 years, trying to review skills for ACLS exam. If I could give this book zero stars I would. I am very upset that I used a credit on this and I feel I deserve a refund. I may even cancel my membership over this book. I really feel this book is fraudulent as it tells you nothing and reviews nothing on ACLS.

Great Resource

Great Read. I can tell the reader was not a medical professional though. Still a great book.
