What this book owns, borrows, and refuses

Figure brief · not yet drawn

A legend strip of four bordered severity swatch pairs with hex values printed beneath, the crit square shown at the shifted Book 8 value beside the topic pair, with a watch-out flag sample under both.

OWNS	BORROWS	DOES NOT COVER
Perfusion physiology and hemodynamics: preload, afterload, contractility, rate	Cardiac marker and electrolyte values → BOOK 07 · P4	Shock states and hemodynamic collapse → BOOK 09
Systematic rhythm interpretation, and every tested rhythm with its nursing priority	Every infusion and titration calculation → BOOK 06 · P6	Any cardiac reference range printed as a table → BOOK 07
Acute coronary syndrome: unstable angina, NSTEMI, STEMI	Drug class logic, suffixes, and antidotes → BOOK 05 · P3	Any worked calculation → BOOK 06
Heart failure, left and right, acute and chronic	Priority frameworks and delegation → BOOK 03 · P5	Drug class mechanisms and interaction logic → BOOK 05
Valvular disease, endocarditis, pericarditis, tamponade	NCJMM step wording → BOOK 02 · P2	The resuscitation algorithm itself, taught as a sequence to recite
Hypertensive crisis	Chart and exhibit reading mechanics → BOOK 01 · P61	Respiratory failure and ventilator care → BOOK 09
Peripheral arterial disease, chronic venous insufficiency, deep vein thrombosis	Stroke assessment scales → BOOK 10	Pediatric congenital heart defects → BOOK 12
Cardiac catheterization, coronary bypass, pacemakers, implanted defibrillators	Perfusion at overview depth → BOOK 01 · P40	Advanced practice interpretation such as axis and bundle branch criteria
Cardiac medications in bedside decision context: what you check before the dose	Left versus right failure at overview depth → BOOK 01 · P42	Twelve-lead lead placement troubleshooting beyond the ten-minute rule
The nursing priorities that sit alongside the resuscitation algorithm	Exam-morning countdown plans → BOOK 16 · P3	Long-term cardiac rehabilitation programming

The boundary line

The exam scores the nursing priority, not the algorithm. Candidates lose points reciting drug sequences and missing the assessment that came first.

Legend

CRIT · BOOK 08 VALUE is printed as a literal hex string on the swatch, shifted for this book only so a patient-harm flag stays visible against crimson page furniture.
TOPIC · NEVER A SEVERITY is the crimson used for headers, rules, and waveform ink. It never marks harm.
The seven note devices appear at quarter size beneath the swatches: margin note, watch out, memory hook, takeaway, pointer chip, tick box, medication gate.

Margin notethe three pages this book goes past are → BOOK 01 · P40, → BOOK 01 · P41, and → BOOK 01 · P42.

Takeawayif it is a number, it is Book 7; if it is math, Book 6; if the patient is in shock, Book 9.
