I am looking for a very easy to follow book about respiratory ventilators; any suggestions?

Are you in Respiratory Therapy school? A good one that covers everything you need to know, provided you are in a resp therapy program, is called Eagan's. It's pretty thick, but it's a great book to help you better understand the ventilator processes. Another one is called Burton's.

Thanks. Hope those books help you out!! Report It
