Synopsis

This is an essential pocket guide for nurses coping with patients with acute medical conditions. It focuses on events within the first critical twenty-four hours of admission and provides an up-to-date, evidence-based guide to the management of these patients.

The book also describes the assessment, observations and management in relation to disease processes and in line with the latest guidelines and protocols. Nursing care is related to the underlying disease.

Review

"This excellent book is highly nursing orientated, but contains sufficient technical and physiological information to support the care and explain the signs and symptoms. A must for any student or staff nurse on a medical placement." Helen Hand, justfornurses.co.uk, May 2002
