Summary: "The new edition of Care of the Acutely Ill Adult enables nursing staff to develop an in-depth understanding of the knowledge required to care for patients whose condition is deteriorating. The book emphasises the importance of systematic assessment, interpretation of clinical signs of deterioration and the need to escalate the patient in a timely manner. Current evidenced based practice and up to date guidelines are included in each systems based chapter and case studies are used throughout the book to enable nurses to apply knowledge to patient scenarios. In recognition of the dynamic nature of acute care delivery new chapters have been included that focus upon pain management and planning for care when recovery is unlikely. This book remains an essential purchase for any nurse working in an acute care setting"-- Provided by publisher.
