Product Description
This handbook companion to Brunner and Suddarth's Textbook of Medical-Surgical Nursing can also be used alone. You'll find selected diseases and disorders presented in an alphabetical outline format that allows quick access and ease of use. Designed to be used in the classroom or clinical setting, the Handbook presents nearly two hundred entries of the most common diseases and disorders. Emphasis is placed on clinical manifestations, the most common nursing diagnoses for each disease/disorder, and the appropriate intervention. And though it is a concise and portable reference source, the Handbook highlights every important aspect of medical-surgical nursing, including: gerontology considerations / patient education / home and community care / health promotion and health maintenance / clinical alerts / collaborative problems.
