Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great book for biomedical technicians
Referring to the 1999 edition...
This is a much more equipment-oriented book than most respiratory care books. Readers primarily concerned with the therapeutic-clinical side of respiratory care may prefer a different book. For readers concerned with the operation and maintenance of equipment (biomedical technicians) this book fills a huge void.
What really impressed me was the in-depth description of mechanical ventilators. Examples from the 1960's and '70's are clearly explained. Don't ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Lots of images.
You know that when it comes to equipment you really need to see what they're talking about. This book has excellent images and the explanations are clear and complete so it's really understandable. The delivery and the condition of the book was wonderful.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Very accurate presentation of a book.
I purchased this book specifically to develop a procedure for setting up a Bird VIP. Everything I needed was in the book.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - definetely equipment-oriented
Fabulous book and one of very few that goes in-depth about specific ventilators, including home-care, in-hospital adult ventilators, baby ventilators, and pretty much everything in between.

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Really difficult to read
I think this book would be great for Registered or Certified therapists, but as a student, myself and my classmates found this to be difficult reading. We think at the student level, the techniques to therapies and how it affects the patient is more important than the mechanical parts of the machines we use. I liked the Pilbeam mechanical Ventilation book much, much more.
