Build the knowledge and clinical judgment you need to succeed in
maternity and pediatric nursing! Written in a clear, easy-to-read
style, Introduction to Maternity and Pediatric Nursing, 9th Edition
describes how you can provide effective, evidence-based care for
women during pregnancy, labor, and delivery, and for newborns and
growing children. The text spans the continuum of child
development, organizing topics from simple to complex and from
health to illness; this approach makes it easy to locate
information. Another hallmark of the book is its strong focus on
family-centered care, health promotion, and illness prevention.
Written by noted nursing educator Gloria Leifer, this bestselling
text includes new Next Generation NCLEX (R) exam-style case studies
plus updates on infection control, pandemic responses, and more.
Unfolding case studies follow one family through the conception and
birth process, and include open-ended critical thinking questions
applying the content to practice. More than 25 nursing care plans
include nursing diagnoses plus goals, nursing interventions, and
rationales, along with critical thinking questions to promote
clinical decision-making skills. Detailed nursing skills cover a
wide range of maternal and pediatric nursing interventions. Safety
alerts highlight the importance of protecting patients and others
from accidents, medication errors, and the spread of disease.
Nursing tips include practical, evidence-based information
applicable in the clinical setting. Nursing guidelines reflect the
World Health Organization's Baby Friendly Hospital Initiative,
alternative therapies, immunization mandates, emergency
preparedness, preventing medication errors, and more. Get Ready for
the NCLEX (R) Examination! at the end of each chapter includes a
summary of key points, additional online resources, review
questions, and critical thinking questions. Cultural Considerations
boxes help you address the needs of culturally diverse patients and
families. Patient Teaching boxes help you communicate instructions
for self-care with patients and families. Medication tables provide
quick access to information about commonly used medications. NEW!
Next-Generation NCLEX (R) examination-style case studies include
new-format questions to help you prepare for the licensure
examination. NEW! Discussion of the NCSBN Clinical Judgment
Measurement Model helps you learn decision making and develop the
skills needed to plan effective nursing interventions. NEW!
Thorough updates include infection control, pandemic responses,
pharmacologic tables, and pediatric treatments.
