Publisher's Synopsis
This book takes a comprehensive, patient-centred approach to the nursing care of patients requiring a wide variety of surgical procedures. It is written by experienced clinicians in the field, and the nursing care described is related to relevant research findings. Presented in three sections, the book offers readers case studies and care plans fromwhich to build their knowledge on surgical care. Intended learning objectives are set at the beginning of each chapter, which will be useful not only for students, but also for qualified nurses looking for assistance in recording their reading in their PREP portfolios.
