Summary
This quick-reference text has all the answers! Now in its Eighth Edition, this portable handbook gives the reader easy access to nursing diagnoses and collaborative problems. Designed in outline format and divided into two sections, the book is well-organized and readable. Section I covers all nursing diagnoses and specific population interventions. Section II presents Diagnostic Clusters. Boxed and screened author's notes clarify diagnoses. Interventions are grouped according to population. Diagnostic Clusters cover all clinical areas -- Medical, Surgical, Obstetrical/Gynecological, Neonatal, Pediatric/Adolescent, and Mental Health. A removable laminated card at the back of the book lists all nursing diagnoses under functional health patterns. New in this edition: Critical Pathways and how to use them with nursing diagnosis; new nursing diagnoses; and NIC and NOC Appendices.
