Good

Good information not the full course but a nice study guide or reference material for review, especially since it doesn’t cost anything.

Decent. Thought it would be better lol but very similar to acls. Just needed to mark it as read or else it looks like I haven’t read anything and not reached my goal. But this is why

It’s simple, useful and well-written book, but unfortunately, in version 2016.01, I found a printing error in page 52 in the algorithm of “Cardiac Arrest”; “Yes” and “No” are switched-place. Also, “VF/VT” wrote twice instead of “Asystole/PEA” in the right side of the page.

This error could be fatal!

Many errors

There are confusing statements especially in the chapter on Shock (i.e. some data in the tables do not correspond with text [distributive vs. cardiogenic]) and algorithms on the management of dysrrhythmias.
