The amount of students who don’t have professors who can clearly explain concepts like this guy in nursing school is alarming

I read 70 pages and my brain was just all over the place. I have to supplement my reading with helpful youtube videos in order for me to understamd. And honestly, this is what really saved my butt during exams because I always go back to the pathophysio and I imagine it in my head haha.

I have dialated cardiomyopathy.i comit to my diet. Aside from that, nothing really changed in my life. I bike at least 3_4 hours a day, every day. I'm sick but I don't think and feel sick, I go about my business if I make it I beat the odds, if I don't I'll die happy doing what I love. Either, I win 🙃

if my clinical instructor talks this way, I would never utter the word bored ever.

At 6:04, you teach about *narrowed pulse pressure* with 110/90 = 10. Pulse pressure would actually be 20; but still a great video. Thank you very much! Your videos help me to review and sweep out the cobwebs before NCLEX exam time!

Hi, Nurse Mike; your YouTube videos are extremely helpful; however, I've noticed that you've minimized your content on YouTube. I remember in this video, we had access to your explanation of all three forms of cardiomyopathy, and now we only have access to the first one. I just think that's a little unfair given your SimpleNursing membership is expensive.

For HOCM we can also do an alcohol septal ablation….which is performed by catheter 😊 much less invasive than a surgical procedure….and a faster recovery.

My 53 year old best friend just died in his sleep last week and the autopsy showed that he died from heart attack caused by cardiomyopathy. He had no symptoms.
