Providing an easy-to-use reference, Critical Care Nursing outlines best  practice for the assessment, monitoring and treatment of critically ill  adult patients. Each chapter includes research and evidence-based  strategies for treating commonly-seen conditions.

Initial  chapters introduce ICU set-up and operation, the rapid response team,  vitals measurement and shock management strategies.  Subsequent  chapters, structured by organ system, focus on care relating to specific  organ function and dysfunction, including the respiratory,  cardiovascular, neurologic, renal and gastrointestinal systems.  Key  information on monitoring for overdoses, special considerations in  traumatic injury and end-of-life concerns is also included.

Critical  Care Nursing is a comprehensive and informative resource for  experienced staff nurses and advanced practice nurses working with  critically ill patients on ICUs, PCUs, transitional care units and  within emergency care departments.
