Medical-Surgical Nursing

Thorough coverage of the concepts that provide the framework for med-surg nursing, including papthophysiology, nursing assessment and care and critical thinking for the management of common medical conditions and surgical procedures. The Nursing Core Series presents a clear alternative to today's unwieldy--and costly--nursing textbooks. Each title is carefully developed to cover course material to satisfy course requirements and help students prepare for success on the NCLEX exam. The content focuses on the core material for the course--developed in conjunction with the best ideas from faculty, students, and recent graduates. Produced in an attractive two-color format, the Series employs a highly readable, extensively illustrated approach that offers margin notes, annotated references, tables, charts, definitions, algorithms, and case studies to present the material clearly and reinforce comprehension.
