Description

The newest edition of this perennial best-seller covers more than 300 disorders and treatments, including such new and investigational treatments as gene therapy and minimally invasive cardiac surgery. Recurring topics include causes, potential complications, assessment findings, diagnostic test results, key nursing diagnoses, patient outcomes, and nursing interventions. Nurses working in hospitals, acute care units, home care, and long-term care facilities love the handbook's compact size, alphabetical format, and quick-reference illustrations and charts. The book also features nursing alerts, priority flow charts, age-specific patient care interventions, health promotion pointers, and collaborative management guidelines.
