Understanding and interpreting lab values is a critical nursing skill that will be tested repeatedly on nursing school exams and the NCLEX licensure exam.

This video covers normal ranges and explains how to analyze common lab tests like the BMP, CBC, basic metabolic panel, liver enzymes, and cardiac markers. Key lab values covered include glucose, electrolytes, white blood cell count, hemoglobin, platelet count, creatinine, BUN, ALT, AST, and troponin. Recognizing when lab results are within normal limits or indicating an abnormality is essential for providing appropriate nursing care and interventions. Reviewing the significance of lab values and how to apply them to clinical practice will help you correctly answer exam questions about this important nursing topic.

I just wanted to let you know that I passed the NCLEX yesterday. You have been instrumental to my success. So, I want to thank you for your passionate teaching skills 🙏

I would like to say thank you so much for the videos . I failed NCLEXRN multiple times because I am foreign nurse and we don’t have exam like NCLEX style.
I tried KAPLAN, ready to pass but no luck .
I am a mother with special needs kid and full time LPN, so very limited time to study but then I encountered simple nursing and it changed my life . I watched all his free videos in YouTube and did Uworld questions while I was traveling back and forth to work . Within one month of studying I passed NCLEX RN with 93 questions .
I can not thank Mike enough . You are wonderful and your teaching skill is amazing .

I passed my NCLEX exam thanks to hearing these videos and listening to NCLEX review lectures. Thank you so much for helping myself and so many students! I 100% recommend to anyone looking for a good study resource. Everything is broken down in a way that is easier to understand and it helps to know what material to focus on as the NCLEX can test on anything. Thank you so much again! Couldn’t do it without you ❤

Thank you, nurse Mike. I watched all your videos and took my nclex and passed. Your music videos helped me a lot to remember all my lab values. I shared all your videos with my classmates, and we ALL PASSED our Nclex.

Passed nursing school December due to simple nursing. Failed nclex first attempt cause I didn't use simple nursing. Currently using simple nursing for content review for my second attempt and just realized how easy you make it for us to grasp content rather than looking at a slide or other videos explaining slides. You really made the first week of my review fun!

I am 59, I was an engineer, but studying nursing now. Even senior needs future plan over 70 or more. When strongly needed, brain barriers can be overcome.
Saying "How?" blocks try. It is attitude issue

Thank you Mike. I passed my LPN Exam, I took yesterday. I didn't study much, all your videos, have sent from heaven. Thank you

I've been a nurse for more than five years now, on occasion I use these videos to reinforce my understanding of concepts I see on a daily basis as a MedSurg nurse. When it came to the NCLEX-RN, I primarily used UWorld, as I found their format closest to the real thing with their detailed global rationales. I do like that you compare ATI, Kaplan, and HESI questions when reinforcing common topics covered on the NCLEX-RN. Personally, I hated Kaplan questions, only finding their test strategies useful in approaching the NCLEX. Overall, great work with the videos.
