Mosby's Critical Care Nursing Reference

Developed to provide nurse clinicians with a resource for the management of adult critical care patients, Mosbys Critical Care Nursing Reference condenses the most essential information needed by nurses working in the ICU. The book provides, in a pocket-sized reference, information on broad topics that apply to a variety of critically ill patients, and detailed information on organ diseases. Chapters are dedicated to psychosocial concerns, complementary therapies, and the unique needs of a pediatric patient in an adult ICU. Therapeutic modalities and pharmacology are both examined, with information that is useful for the student, the new nurse, and the experienced professional.
