"This is the first book for staff that uses medical devices and as such is to be welcomedIt is well illustrated, easy to read and is an essential practical resource for all staff working with and managing medical devices to keep patients and work colleagues safe. I would highly recommend this pioneering book as an essential learning resource for all staff working in perioperative care and clinical areas where radiological clinical interventions occur.” RCN Officer, Yorkshire and Humberside JPP / Vol 17 / No 7 / July 2007 "The style is both clear and flowing...well researched and certainly contains a lot of information, much of which should certainly be useful for those whose work involves the use of medical equipment. It would be a valuable addition to many bookshelves." Brian Brown, SCOPE, JUNE 07, 41.
