This newly revised and expanded second edition systematically reviews current research and clinical practice for over 40 nursing interventions - complete with nursing diagnoses and outcomes. The selection of interventions spans the clinical spectrum from acute and critical care to lifestyle alterations and wellness. The book seeks to define exactly what a nurse's role is, to give readers a grasp of the research base for current interventions, and works to develop a universal language for health care providers - so the effects of nursing care can be better documented and evaluated, and communication between all care providers strengthened. Material is divided into four sections: self-care assistance, including the basics of nursing care: acute care management, examining both the psychosocial and physiological interventions: life style alteration, outlining how to work more effectively with patients and families needing to establish and reach new life goals: health promotion, offering interventions to improve patients' physical and mental well being: and life support, representing the life-saving role of critical care nurses. Finally, updated chapters address new perspectives on basic skills with advice on hygiene assistance, feeding, and sleep promotion.
