Study Notes
NCLEX Study Guide
- This guide provides information to pass the NCLEX exam.
- It covers various nursing topics, including advice for studying, a study schedule, must-know labs and vital signs, hallmark signs, patient positioning, diagnostic tests, general nursing, medical surgical, critical care, pediatrics, maternity, mental health, leadership, and pharmacology.
Advice for NCLEX
- Plan to study for at least one month.
- Knowledge of disease processes and pharmacology is crucial, but understanding the questions is paramount.
- Mastering Select All That Apply (SATA) questions is important, as they account for a significant portion of the exam (75%).
- Recommended resources include U-World and Nurse Achieve.
- U-World is highly recommended for comprehensive practice questions.
- Nurse Achieve utilizes the CAT testing format, mirroring the NCLEX's format and adhering to updated COVID-19 related regulations. A few CAT exams a couple of weeks before your exam is highly recommended.
- Review materials from your nursing program if needed.
NCLEX Study Schedule
- The provided schedules outline daily study topics for Medical Surgical, Critical Care, Pediatrics, and Maternity. Mental Health, Leadership and Pharmacology also have specific study days. Review previous concepts and practice questions each day.
Must Know Labs and Vital Signs
- Provides a list of essential lab values (Potassium, Sodium, Calcium, etc) and their normal ranges.
- Also includes normal ranges for crucial vital signs (blood pressure, heart rate, respiratory rate, temperature).
Must Know Hallmark Signs
- Lists hallmark signs associated with various medical conditions, such as Addison's disease, anaphylaxis, appendicitis, asthma, and more.
Patient Positioning
- Outlines various essential patient positioning techniques for different medical procedures and conditions (e.g., lumbar puncture, pulmonary embolism, and others).
Diagnostic Signs/Tests
- Explains diagnostic tests like Allen's test, Cullen's sign, and Murphy's sign, focusing on their relation to specific medical conditions.
General Nursing
- Covers crucial aspects for general nursing practice, including ABC (airway, breathing, and circulation), Maslow's hierarchy, and the nursing process (assessment, diagnosis, planning, implementation, and evaluation).
- Includes order of assessment (inspection, auscultation, palpation, and percussion)
Medical-Surgical and Critical Care
- Provides detailed information about medical and surgical conditions as well as critical care considerations, including pneumonia, pneumothorax, and shock.
- Discusses important topics and crucial nursing interventions specific to these areas.
Pediatrics
- Includes vital insights into common pediatric conditions like Reye Syndrome, Asthma, and infectious diseases.
- The use of appropriate precautions and interventions tailored for pediatric patients are emphasized.
Maternity
- Detail information regarding gestation, terminology, stages of labour, interventions, tests, and conditions.
- Includes fetal heart rates and their implications during pregnancy.
Mental Health
- Provides a comprehensive overview of various mental health conditions, including delirium, dementia, magical thinking, schizophrenia, anxiety disorders, PTSD, personality disorders, as well as important nursing knowledge and interventions.
Leadership
- Explains the roles and responsibilities of different nursing levels (RN, LPN, CNA/UAP) and the principles of delegation.
