This comprehensive and clinically-focused textbook is designed for
student and qualified nurses concerned with caring effectively for
deteriorating and acutely ill adults outside of specialist
intensive care units. Divided into six sections, the book begins
with chapters on assessment and the deteriorating patient,
including monitoring vital signs and interpreting blood results.
This is followed by two sections focusing on breathing and
cardiovascular problems respectively. Section 4 explores issues
around disability and impairment, including chapters on neurology,
pain management, psychological needs and thermoregulation. The
penultimate section looks at maintaining the internal environment,
with chapters on issues such as nutrition, fluid management and
infection control. The text ends with a discussion of legal issues
and accountability. Nursing Acutely Ill Adults includes a full
range of pedagogical features, including sections: identifying
fundamental knowledge; highlighting implications for practice;
giving further reading and resources; using case scenarios to help
readers relate theory to practice; and providing 'time out'
exercises. It is the ideal textbook for students taking modules in
caring for critically ill adults and qualified nurses working with
these patients.
