I absolutely love this book. I have worked in the ER as an RN for almost 2 years and going back to get my Medic. I am now starting a new job in the ICU and looking through this book has helped me understand a lot of topics I did not know about.

I’d love to give this product more stars, However, I received my ICU 2.0 book last night and right out of the box Most of the pages appear to be warped. :( I was really looking forward to using this I will have to wait for the return and order another one because this is truly the only one I wanted.

Content clarity: 10/10 Packaging: 10/10 Printing quality: 10/0 I’m transitioning back into the ICU after being out for 2 yrs. I’m a visual learner looking for something packed with info but compact enough to carry to work & this is perfect. The layout is inviting, the graphics are crisp, and it’s made by a nurse who gets it. Highly recommend!

Did not appreciate that my book came bent ☹️. Other than that, the contents are a great reference for my Update: just wanted to say how appreciative I am on how the issue was handled; I was reached out after my original review and was offered a replacement outside my refund/return window. TY.

🚨 First Time Taking CRRT?! No need to panic! ✨ I still remember the first time I had a CRRT patient on my ICU orientation! I walked into the room, saw that machine humming away, and IMMEDIATELY felt my stomach drop. What was this massive machine that I was expected to learn…but hadn’t been taught about in nursing school?! 😰 I WISHED I had a quick reference (or better yet, a pocket card! 😏) that broke down CRRT in a way that made sense. A guide on indications, the differences between modes/solutions, and what to check every hour—because let’s be real, the last thing you have time for in the ICU is digging through a massive policy manual! 🧠⚡️ That’s exactly why we created our New to ICU™ Resources—so you can study (and learn!)

😅 Ever felt your brain short-circuit the first time you saw eight drips running at once in the ICU? …aka your first “CHRISTMAS TREE” of infusions?! 🎄 ✨ …now imagine confidently managing vasopressors, sedatives, paralytics, and analgesics without second-guessing every titration 💪🏼 That’s exactly what the Continuous Infusions Pocket Card from our New to ICU™ Visual Guide series is designed to help you do! 🩺 Inside our New to ICU™ resources includes: ✔️ Titration ranges and drip rates for common ICU infusions ✔️ Mechanisms of action and key side effects ✔️ Sedation scales (RASS, CPOT) made simple ✔️ TOF monitoring for paralytics ✔️ Critical pearls on propofol infusion syndrome and sedation goals ✔️ Clean, easy-to-read visuals for quick reference during chaotic shifts Whether you’re a new grad nurse, nursing student, or a preceptor looking to give your orientee a smoother start, this guide bridges the gap between nursing school lectures and real-world ICU practice. 🧠 Because let’s be honest…nursing school doesn’t prepare you for drip titrations like this! 😅 - #ICUnurse #NewGradNurse #NursingStudent #CriticalCareNurse #NurseLife #NursePreceptor #ICUeducation #ScrubLifeNotes #nursetok#nursetokftiktok #Visua#VisualLearninginuousInfusions

🫁 New to Navigating the Ventilator as a Bedside Nurse?! Have no fear!✨ I still remember the first time I walked into my patient’s room and felt overwhelmed by the array of vent sounds, waveforms and a Christmas tree full of ICU drips! THANK GOODNESS for my preceptors - and incredible Respiratory Therapists - for helping me build a solid foundation for caring for vented patients in the ICU! 💗 I WISHED I had a quick reference (or better yet, a pocket card! 😏) that broke down the MUST KNOW concepts for any ICU nurse managing a vented patient. As kind and friendly as my RT colleagues were - they were also just as busy as I was, and not always available to explain new concepts! So, we worked together to create resource guides on my unit for new nurses… And our Mechanical Ventilation Pocket Card was born! 😍 PS: Everything included in our Pocket Cards is also in our New to ICU™ guides!  💬 Tag a fellow ICU newbie who NEEDS this!

If you are new to the ICU, a new grad nurse, or even a nursing student hoping to get into the ICU, I cannot recommend this book enough. I got it immediately and it’s one of the thing that increased my comfort level in the ICU. Even my preceptor bought it just to see what she can add to the new grad orientation experience.  It aligns perfectly with many residency program requirements, particularly at my hospital, go pick it up.  #icunurse #newgradnurse #nursecontentcreator #nursingstudent

⁉️ Is your patient Warm & Dry, Warm & Wet, Cold & Dry, or Cold & Wet? Let’s break it down! ⬇️ When I was studying for my CCRN, I used THIS chart to help me navigate fluid status assessments and cardiac output measurements for those tricky case-study style questions! In summary, the categories are… ☀️ Warm & Dry = Stable (aka the “ideal” patient!) 🌊 Warm & Wet = Volume overload (diuretics needed!) 🥶 Cold & Dry = Low perfusion & low volume (pressors & fluids!) 🌨️ Cold & Wet = Cardiogenic shock (inotropes & diuresis!) - #nursing #icunurse #newtoicu #newgradnurse #nursetok #nursesoftiktok #criticalcare #icurn #icunurselife #nurselife #cardiacicu #cardiacnurse #ccrn #hemodynamics

🚰 Preload = Volume status! 🚰 But how do you measure it? CVP, PAWP, or bedside ultrasound! ⬇️ Low preload? Your patient needs fluids 💦. ⬆️ High preload? Think diuresis or vasodilators 💊.
