Quite possible the driest, most mind numbing text book out there.
It is all vital information and zero fluff. My Level III NICU considers it required reading during the orientation process.
It will tell you exactly what you need to know in order to function in the Neontal ICU or get your RNC certification in NICU.
Just try to stay awake while reading...
