THE TEXTBOOK
The 2nd edition continues its groundbreaking approach to help students make the connections between concepts and patient care to ensure they understand the important relationships between the pathophysiology, clinical presentation, and management of the most common disorders they will encounter in practice. A concise and consistent organization focuses on the ‘need-to-know’, while clear and well-defined nursing care promotes critical thinking and clinical judgment through a unique emphasis on the patient-centered role of the nurse.
