Vascular nursing

By Fahey and Victoria A. Fahey

Vascular Nursing remains the only clinical reference devoted solely to the nursing care of patients with peripheral vascular disorders. This thoroughly updated and revised text provides a comprehensive overview of vascular disease and presents specific nursing management strategies for each vascular disorder. Valuable for practitioners in both the inpatient and the outpatient setting, the fourth edition includes information on the new minimally invasive endoluminal surgery that is replacing traditional surgery. New technology for diagnostic evaluation of vascular disease and non-operative management of vascular disease is covered in detail.

Excellent resource Vascular Surgical Nursing

As an experienced vascular theatre nurse this book provides a comprehensive overview. From A & P to surgical instrumentation. Written by a nurse so is much better than a medical book but thorough enough to answer all your questions.

Vascular Nursing

Finally, a book created to an upcoming specialty. I have been a vascular nurse for five years. I found the content and standards of care to be right on track with current treatment. The book covers everything from venous to arterial. It does a remarkable job stressing the importance of risk modification and vascular rehab. The book makes a nice review for those of us who have concetrated in this field. However, for those nurses working on surgical floors, the book is a wonderful reference.
