A Comprehensive Review for the Certification and Recertification Examinations for PAs Seventh Edition

Must buy! Information is simply stated with all the major points you need for disease conditions inclusive of symptoms, diagnostic testing, labs and treatment to name a few. Helped me pass my PANRE-LA!

Great book

There are some errors in the book, mostly typos. I found several in chapter 8 practice questions. I hope the actual material I am studying is correct… Trusting other reviews that have faith in this book.

Good Board Recertification review book.

I guess I should have read the reviews this time.This will be the 5th time I have used this review book since I graduated in 1995. Maybe I didn’t notice all the errors in the past, but there were many typos and some truly inaccurate statements. Some were easy to see as the light bulb information on the side clearly contradicted the text next to it. Some things were obvious like FUO includes temp greater than 38.3C or 101.8F - in 2 places on same page except that it should be 101.0F (which is correct and does correspond to 38.3C) and it wasn’t caught in either location. Who ever screened or edited the sections relied on autocorrect as one answer to a question in chapter 9 was “A. Angiotensin-converting enzyme wrap and rest” which apparently was an acceptable variation to ACE wrap and rest. By the time I got to the end of the OB chapter I was frustrated and was double checking so many things. When the answers for questions 11 and 12 were completed transposed, I really wondered if the editors actually read the words on the pages. My boss suggested I use another book after I showed him “Only a few patients in the United States develop opportunistic infections or malignancies because of the success of antiretroviral therapy.” Hmmm. At my hospital alone…The book still has a lot of good information, but when the errors stack up I start to lose faith in the accuracy and integrity of this product going forward.

Nice review with some updates needed when compared with updated information. Nice format.

Helped me through the PANRE again!
