Critical care nursing requires a specific skill set. Patient management in the critical care setting is complex by nature, and usually requires frequent changes to prescribed therapeutic interventions based on the nurse's assessment. When a patient is at risk for physiologic instability, a critical care nurse must provide ongoing surveillance, continuous diagnostic and data collection, enhanced nursing judgment and critical thinking, and collaboration with health care team members. As such, a critical care nurse must possess an understanding of current research and complex conditions. I believe that knowledge—acquired through practice and education—is information in motion. That's why Critical Care Nursing Made Incredibly Easy, Third Edition, is such a valuable textbook and reference guide to clinical practice. You'll find that the information in this text is presented logically and is based on the pathophysiology of disease, significance of evidence, and avoidance of harmful effects inherent at the critical care level of nursing practice. Chapters include critical care basics, holistic care issues, body system-based conditions, and hematologic, immune, and multisystem disorders. The updated content is expansive, and it includes applications to such specialized critical care arenas as rapid response teams and advanced life support measures. The spectrum of new information is timely and includes moderate sedation, drug overdose, pressure ulcer management, and treating patients with specialized needs, such as elderly, pediatric, and bariatric patients. The most important and necessary variable when transforming information to knowledge is comprehension. The signature of Critical Care Nursing Made Incredibly Easy, Third Edition, is the way in which the information is presented: clearly, directly, and simply. The unique writing style, color illustrations, witty characters, and clever icons—most notably Memory joggers, which offer simple tricks to remember key points—create a reference that helps you to translate critical care nursing information into practice.
