Listening to heart and lung sounds and recognize normal and abnormal sounds is essential to Nurses.
Prentice Hall Heart and Lung Sounds helps students master recognizing and diagnosing heart and lung sounds via multiple presentation styles. Upon finishing this program, students will have a solid foundation on which to base assessment of the client with cardiopulmonary disease.
In each CD-ROM section, students will hear an audio introduction for each sound and see a graphic description of the sound wave. Students can start and stop the sound at any time or replay it as many times as needed. The enclosed Workbook enhances and provides quiz review to ensure students have mastered the material.
Key Features
- The CD-ROM introduces the listener to over 20 normal and abnormal heart and lung sounds in a multi-media format.
- The Workbook enhances learning through activities and exercises using illustrations and key terms.
- Heart and lung sounds are presented in visual, written, and auditory format.
- Normal and abnormal sounds are provided for both heart and lung sounds.
- Audio quizzes are designed to help reinforce what you’ve learned.
- NCLEX®-style questions in the Workbook integrate the knowledge as it relates to real clinical situations.
