The fifth edition of this essential text provides a comprehensive overview of working in intensive care. Written for critical care nurses practising at Level 3, it is fully updated to ensure the evidence base is up to date and the content reflects contemporary best practice.
Intensive Care Nursing covers patient-focused issues of bedside nursing; the technical knowledge necessary to care safely for ICU patients; the more common and specialised disease processes and treatments encountered; and how nurses can use their knowledge and skills to develop their own and others' practice. This feature includes all-new chapters on maternal critical care and principles of pharmacology for intensive care nursing. The chapters include numerous pedagogical features to aid readers in transferring their learning, such as boxes highlighting implications for practice, further reading sections, and clinical scenarios with questions.
Intensive Care Nursing is essential reading for student and qualified nurses and allied health professionals working with critically ill patients, particularly those undertaking post-registration training in the area.
