Contemporary Issues in Coronary Care Nursing (Paperback)

The significant contribution that nurses can make towards improving coronary care through prevention, detection, treatment and rehabilitation has been highlighted in national strategies to reduce CHD deaths. In the health service more broadly, focus is being placed on evidence-based practice and the development of modern nursing roles. Contemporary Issues in Coronary Care Nursing takes a truly nurse-focused and evidence-based approach to exploring topical developments in coronary care. The book integrates the findings of recent nursing research with practical aspects of the nurse's role and aims to bridge the research-practice gap. The book explores nursing theory and its application, providing examples of how conceptual models can be used in practice to improve care. It also examines the role of the nurse in risk factor management and patient education, and describes advances in nurse-led services. Contemporary Issues in Coronary Care Nursing is essential reading for coronary care nurses, pre- and post-registration nursing students and allied health practitioners. It allows the reader to critically examine and reflect upon theories and explore their application to coronary care practice.
