Fully revised and updated for the second edition, the
Oxford Handbook of Cardiac Nursing is the ultimate
companion for all those caring for cardiac patients.
Systematically covering all the main areas of cardiac
nursing, it is packed full of clinical information and
practical advice. This new edition now includes expanded
information on prevention of cardiovascular disease and
heart disease in pregnancy, as well as the latest
resuscitation guidelines, protocols, and clinical
information. The handbook covers assessment,
investigation, treatment, rehabilitation, and
pharmacological interventions, and new illustrations and
diagrams have been added throughout to aid clarity of
information. Although a large part of the handbook
focuses on caring for patients with coronary heart
disease, many other cardiovascular problems such as
valvular heart disease, congenital heart disease, and
cardiomyopathies are covered. Designed to be used on the
ward, in the community, and for studying and revision,
it contains expert guidance, written by experienced
nurses and teachers. The book is specifically laid out
to enable quick access to precise, targeted information,
and covers the vast majority of clinical scenarios.
Unique and indispensable, the Oxford Handbook of Cardiac
Nursing offers a wealth of information at your
fingertips. |
