Description

The latest addition to the Real World Nursing Survival Guide series, this unique resource discusses the most common health care problems seen in the critical and trauma/emergency settings - using a systems approach with a focus on current practice standards. Each chapter offers a consistent disorder format and covers a wide-range of information from emergent to critical care nursing.
