内容説明

PHARMACOLOGY AND THE NURSING PROCESS contains everything a nursing student needs to know about pharmacology. It breaks down massive amounts of information into easy-to-learn sections. Fifty-four chapters are presented in ten units organized by body system. And a unique section, Study Skills Tips, presents proven study skills and time management strategies for each unit. Additionally, every drug group is covered in a consistent format: discussion of the drug class and related pathophysiology with subheads for mechanism of action, drug effects, therapeutic uses, side/adverse effects, toxicity and management of overdose, interactions, dosages, and drug profiles. With this innovative approach to correlating study skills and learning pharmacology, students will learn easier, faster and will retain more information than ever before. Features: * Body systems organization facilitates learning and provides an effective means to integrate the text with medical-surgical or adult health nursing courses. * More than 260 full-color photos and illustrations help explain how drugs work in the body and help define other pharmacologic principles. * Chapter opener pedagogy includes objectives, a box listing drugs discussed in the chapter, and a glossary with page numbers to help students focus and mentally organize content. * Case Studies feature specific clinical situations followed by critical thinking questions to promote clinical applicability of content. * Nursing Care Plans promote understanding of the nurse's roles and responsibilities in administering medications. * These boxes help prepare students for key issues in nursing today: cultural implications, home health points, legal and ethical principles, pediatric and geriatric considerations and research. * Patient Teaching Tips highlight useful patient education information specific to the drugs discussed. * Separate disorders index alphabetically references disorders, conditions, and diseases in the text to aid integrating the text with medical-surgical or adult health nursing courses or content. New to this edition: * New chapter entitled "Patient Education and Drug Therapy" discusses important concepts of patient teaching related to nursing pharmacology. * New examples of drug calculations using fraction method and dimensional analysis are included in the "Math Calculations" chapter. * Expanded content on pediatric dosages and calculations (including a BSA nomogram), pregnancy issues, and nursing process application are covered in the "Life Span Considerations" chapter. * Photo Atlas of Drug Administration is thoroughly revised to feature a new format and contains more than 120 full-color photos depicting drug administration routes. * Appendix of Canadian trade names and generics includes page numbers for quick reference.
