Have you ever wondered why:
Most of us learned our anatomy, physiology, and pathophysiology in school where we were focused primarily on passing the class. We memorized, we studied, but we quickly forgot.
Understanding the essential concepts of pulmonary anatomy, physiology, and pathophysiology will help you find patient complications faster and respond to them more appropriately.
- Patients who suffer respiratory arrest often complain of anxiety as much as 8 hours before they decompensate?
- Pulse oximetry can be normal when your patient is having difficulty breathing?
- Abnormal breath sounds form and what they mean?

Understanding the essential concepts of pulmonary anatomy, physiology, and pathophysiology will help you find patient complications faster and respond to them more appropriately.
- THE LUNG REVEALED — Examine the structure and function of the components of the lungs, airways, and endocrine controls that affect pulmonary function.
- OXYGEN DELIVERY AND CONSUMPTION — Find out how the lung controls acid/base balance and the mechanisms that protect the body from hypoxic injury.
- COMMON PULMONARY CONDITIONS — Find out what is really going on during acute pulmonary edema, COPD, and pulmonary embolism.
- LESS COMMON PULMONARY DISORDERS — Discover the pathophysiologic mechanisms behind less common pulmonary disorders such as ARDS, hospital-acquired pneumonia, and pulmonary hypertension.

Have you ever wondered:
In The Kidneys in Detail, Carla J. Moschella, PA-C, MS, RD, explains the complexities of fluids and electrolytes in simple terms that you will be able to understand and gives you practical ways to use the information at the bedside with your next patient.
If you have a hard time explaining to your patients about why their potassium is low for the third day in a row, or how certain drugs can cause renal dysfunction, or why it is important that you measure intake and output, then you need to go back to the basics with the help of a mentor who can really make the information easy and understandable.
- What the serum osmolality means to your patient?
- How to anticipate electrolyte disorders?
- When do drugs and IV dye affect renal function?

- THE KIDNEYS REVEALED — The structure and function of components of the mechanical and hormonal systems of the kidneys.
- RENAL DYSFUNCTION — What happens to cause decreased renal function and why.
- ELECTROLYTES AND THE KIDNEYS — Find out why your patient's electrolytes are out of range and what you can do about it.
- KIDNEYS AND FLUIDS: THE BALANCING ACT — Discover how the kidneys act to maintain fluid balance and osmolality; and how to find problems before they occur.

If you could master only one concept during your career, it should be the inflammatory response.
Do you care for patients with:
Although the inflammatory response is incredibly complex, the results of inflammation can be broken down into three major events: 1) vasodilation, 2) capillary permeability, and 3) clotting. The results of these events are what cause the problems we associate with many different conditions such as septic shock, ARDS, atherosclerosis, and many others. But, the lack of a response can be just as devastating — exposing the body to a myriad of deadly infections.
Learn how to manage patients with inflammation, and those whose inflammatory response is inhibited, by mastering the anatomy, physiology, and pathophysiology of inflammatory and immune responses.
If you've had trouble with these concepts in the past, then this is the program for you! You will get the detail you need — explained at a level that you will fully understand.
