Dear Nurse Mike, I am here to return my thanks and gratitude. I passed the next Gern Nclex in 85 questions. Thank you so much for all the wonderful lectures, I tested on 7/26/2023 and got a lot of questions and 2 case studies on COPD, I wouldn’t know what I would I have done without this video… every single thing you talk about was on my test to the extent of them asking of how the Hof cough technique is done I quickly played this video in my mind. Thank you so much 🙏 continue the good works. God bless you.

My nursing study group watched your videos. For our Respiratory Exam today. All 3 of us got As with one of us getting the highest grade of the class.

I have ADHD and find your videos so engaging and the colors and little tricks really help it stick in my mind and I really understand the concepts. Definitely will be watching all of your stuff for the NCLEX and from now on

[dr.sagarsharma]

Mike your teaching methods is so effective 🙏

[johnnyRT]

As an RT this was great. Should also add the other diseases of copd are asthma, bronchiectasis, and cystic fibrosis. Emphysema and chronic bronchitis are the most common. This explanation was spot on for the two 🤙🏻

[amenedoghogho]

I am a Nursing student, and I love your videos. Thank you so much.

Hi Sir. I would to thank you for this very informative video you made. The night before my competency examination at PNS here in Qatar, I watched this video. I really focused on every words you said. And then, during my oral panel interview, they asked me about COPD. Patient is desaturated, unstable and cyanotic. So, I said put om High Fowler's position, tripod or depending on patient's comfortable position. Pursed lip breathing, the 2 secs and 4 secs method which is non-pharma and the pharma management. Tapering Oxygenation if patient's o2 reaches 94%^. So i made it. Thank you so much. Keep on teaching and sharing your knowledge Sir. God bless.❤️😇🙏

Answering questions on the NCLEX requires knowledge and strategy.

Knowing the material is hugely important, but understanding NCLEX questions and how you go about using that knowledge to answer those questions is equally important, because the National Council Licensure Examination requires strategy to put your nursing knowledge to good use

[itsci]

I love how easy you make it to remember & understand so much information. I’ll be making my flash cards really soon.

[asegedwoldu]

It is very important tutorials for students and other Medical personals to refresh them selves

[freddalot]
