This book is a course of study covering the entire range of patient complaints commonly seen in the emergency department. Each complaint covers all the tasks associated with caring for that patient. This description may be from another edition of this product.
Even after many years as an ER nurse, I found this book to be an excellent resource about emergency medicine. It is nicely laid out, easy to read and full of current information about emergency procedures and medications. I highly recommend it not only for EDs but for ICU, med-surg and outpatient medical offices.
Excellent resource for ER, ICU and OR Nurses.

As a Legal Nurse Consultant and active Operating Room Nurse I found this text to be an excellent resource. It is easy to use with each condition referenced in an easy-to-read, concise table format. The table of contents is divided into 34 alphabetically listed conditions. I highly recommend it for nurses caring for critically ill patients (includes just about every nurse these days!) as well as those needing to reference care for a particular emergency condition.
