I've learned a lot about heart failure and for the things that we need to avoid, to help the patient ,and ofcourse all the drugs that we need to lower the BP and HR and the do's and dont's for that drug and also those techniques and tips for nclex, over all I enjoy, it gives me more courage to learn about health

Great explanations for different terms. Has pictures for visual learners. The abbreviations also help some names might be tricky on a test but studying will prevent that

El curso “Insuficiencia cardíaca congestiva para enfermería y NCLEX” fue muy completo y bien estructurado. Explica de forma clara la fisiopatología, diagnóstico y cuidados esenciales. Me ayudó a reforzar conceptos importantes para la práctica clínica y para el examen. Solo mejoraría algunos ejemplos prácticos, pero en general quedé muy satisfecho con el contenido.

This course is so amazing beyond imagination. It has simplified the concept of heart faulure to the simplest level despite its difficulties. The most important thing it summerises is the concept of the heart failure itself, its types i.e RHF and LHF. It also summerises how to differentiate between the two types based on the symptoms of each of the types. The courae is indeed so amazing
