- Emergency nursing made incredibly easy! / by Gersch, Carolyn J.,editor.; Heimgartner, Nicole M.,editor.; Rebar, Cherie R.,editor.;
"The need for emergency nursing to remain incredibly easy continues as we look with confidence and anticipation into the future of health care. Each year adds to the list of new health care challenges and opportunities. With 136.9 million visits annually to emergency departments per the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, it is no surprise that knowledgeable emergency nurses are relied on to provide the quickest and best possible care. One key role of the emergency nurse is to quickly assess the patient's chief concern and act if necessary. Emergency Nursing Made Incredibly Easy! Third Edition will help the nurse hone these vital skills. This book covers the evidence-based triage process and holistic care issues such as culture and pain considerations. Subsequent chapters focus on physiologic systems, covering neurologic, cardiac, respiratory, gastrointestinal, and musculoskeletal emergencies. It also discusses wound care management, genitourinary and gynecologic emergencies, obstetric emergencies, maxillofacial and ocular emergencies, psychiatric emergencies, environmental emergencies, mass casualty events and disaster response, and shock and multisystem trauma. The clear language and illustrations will help readers anticipate and assess certain conditions and prevent predictable complications. Recurring topics for each section include how to assess the patient, diagnostic tests that may be done, and treatment options to anticipate. A Quick quiz at the end of each chapter tests the reader's knowledge on the information presented. This book can help practicing emergency nurses learn more about their current position. It can also help student nurses, and nurses from other specialties, build confidence in knowing how to respond in emergent situations. We are proud to be able to introduce you to the newest edition of Emergency Nursing Made Incredibly Easy!-a wonderful tool that will help you navigate the challenging and rewarding world of emergency nursing"--Includes bibliographical references and index.Emergency department basics / Tara Latimore -- Holistic care / Darla Green -- Neurologic emergencies / Casey Moebius -- Cardiac emergencies / Nicole M.

Includes bibliographical references and index."Although pathology changes very little, our understanding of pathophysiology is constantly changing as it is enriched by new scientific research. Indeed, research has contributed greatly to our knowledge base regarding normal physiology as well as disease states. This fourth edition of Professional Guide to Pathophysiology reflects such recent advances in medical knowledge. The first chapter of the book lays a foundation for normal cellular physiology and pathologic deviations of disease. Following that, cancer, infection, and fluid and electrolytes each deserve a specific chapter because of their ubiquitous effects. The remainder of the book is organized by body system, with an initial discussion of normal anatomy and physiology as a background for pathology specific to that area. Subsequent disease entries cover causes, pathophysiology, signs and symptoms, complications, diagnosis, treatment, and special considerations. Professional Guide to Pathophysiology, Fourth Edition, readily provides the vital information needed, helping the clinician keep current and helping the student emerge more knowledgeable"--Provided by publisher.Fundamentals of pathophysiology / Katrin Moskowitz -- Cancer / Kathryn E.
