A Customer said Great for writing pathophys cards. Give quick resource for pathophysiology cards for preparation in medical conditions and surgucal procedure. LISTs etiology, clinical manifestations, pathophys, diagnostic tests and theraputic management. A must for preparing for clinicals.. Helpful sjadamson This is good to have with you during clinicals. I am going to purchase the Lewis workbook (studyguide). The clinical advisers have shown us it helps a lot.. Michelle M. said cliff's notes for the textbook. Excellent for when you need the information and don't want to read an entire chapter to find it out. I call it the Cliff's note's version of the textbook. All major diagnosises are included, their etiologies, assessments, diagnostics, and treatments. Useful in clinical.
