Synopsis

Doody’s Medical Review: 100 Points; 5 Stars (First Edition)

The third edition of this highly acclaimed review continues to promote efficient, time-saving study by synthesizing the complex knowledge needed to pass the exam into a concise, well-organized format. It is updated with key information about the new FNP certification exam, including new test format questions featuring photos of skin and eye conditions, drag and drop, EKG, and more challenging multiple choice questions. Also new to the third edition is more detailed information about non-clinical topics on the exam including research, ethics, medico-legal issues, advanced practice law, health practices of major religions, and reimbursement guidelines. One hundred new review questions throughout the book and on the practice exam―including answer key and rationale-increase the total number of questions to 740.

Designed to help FNP students boost their confidence through intensive review and high-quality questions, the third edition features a succinct, precisely targeted ‘need-to-know’ detail of diseases commonly seen in primary care. It covers the entire lifespan from pediatrics through geriatrics, and offers extensive test-taking techniques and question dissection and analysis sections that provide strategies on how to identify the best clues during the problem-solving process. Organized by body system, sections are consistently formatted and encompass Danger Signals, Normal Findings, Lab findings, Benign Variants, and individual Disease Review topics for each system. Additional outstanding features include Exam Tips and Clinical Tips that help to focus system study on key information.
