Description

MOSBY'S CRITICAL CARE NURSING CONSULTANT provides a useful, fingertip-essential reference that affords the critical care nurse a resource for accessing information about multiple disorders, modalities, and other short topics. It is the easiest, hands-on access to information on how to manage the critically ill patient, primarily in the hospital setting. Organized alphabetically, with over 200 disorders and topical references, each disorder is presented in a highly visual two-page columnar spread. Each column is easily identifiable by an icon that will draw the reader's eye to thestandard placement of the information contained therein-overview, diagnosis, collaborative management, nursing diagnosis/interventions, and miscellaneous.

* Key information is presented in a brief, easy-to-grasp format. * Each topic includes: clinical presentation, vital signs, lab studies, patient/family teaching, desired outcomes, when to consult the physician, and more. * A-Z organization and logical columnar format help you find what you need fast.
