Start here to master the concepts, technology, and procedures of critical care nursing! Introduction to Critical Care Nursing, 8th Edition prepares you to provide safe, effective, patient-centered care in a variety of high-acuity, progressive, and critical care settings. Evidence-based coverage includes realistic case studies and incorporates the latest advances in critical care. Disorders are conveniently organized by body system or special situation, and nursing management chapters include quick-reference nursing care plans. This clear, concise textbook will help you develop the knowledge and clinical reasoning skills needed for success in today's highly complex critical care environments. • Critical Reasoning Activities are included throughout the text, promoting development of clinical nursing judgment to help you prepare for the Next-Generation NCLEX-RN® Exam. • Emphasis on QSEN competencies enables you to gain the knowledge, skills, and attitudes needed to provide safe, high-quality health care in a variety of high acuity, progressive, and critical care settings. • Evidence-Based Practice boxes illustrate how research evidence is used to address problems in patient care and includes nursing implications plus AACN’s new system for Levels of Evidence: A, B, C, D, E, and M. • Universal Collaborative Plan of Care for the Critically Ill Patient addresses key aspects of collaborative/interprofessional care that apply to virtually all critically ill patients.  • Individual Plans of Care prepare you for clinical practice by describing patient problems, patient outcomes, and nursing assessments and interventions with rationales. • Case studies challenge you to apply concepts to the real world, testing your clinical nursing judgment by asking questions about patient-specific cases with lab results. • Clinical Alerts highlight potential problems and concerns to improve patient safety and clinical care. • Laboratory Alerts emphasize the importance of laboratory test results to critical care nursing. • Medication tables show the actions/usages, indications, dosages/routes, side effects, and nursing implications of medications commonly used in critical care settings. • Coverage of cardiac assistive devices includes the ECMO device for extracorporeal life support, as well as other small, portable, bedside cardiac-assistive devices. • Hemodynamic monitoring content now emphasizes the noninvasive methods of hemodynamic monitoring that are becoming more prominent. • Coverage of infection control addresses the QSEN safety competency and helps provide patient protection against the growing threat of drug-resistant infections. • Nearly 300 full-color photographs and drawings visually clarify key concepts and equipment for better understanding of today’s complex critical care environment. • Coverage of palliative care supports the book's strong focus on end-of-life care. • NEW! Study Break questions in NCLEX® Exam-style, multiple-choice format break up the chapters into easy-to-read content "chunks" and make it easy to check your understanding, with answers and rationales in the back of the book. • NEW! Transplant Considerations boxes highlight essential considerations for patient care in preparation for organ transplantation, and REVISED Organ Donation chapter focuses on a practical evaluation of dying patients for organ donation and preservation. • UPDATED illustrations include photos of state-of-the art equipment to familiarize you with the modern, high-tech critical care environment. • NEW! Emphasis on patient problems (in lieu of NANDA diagnoses) promotes interprofessional collaborative practice by using terms that are easily understood by various members of the healthcare team. • UPDATED content on drug addiction and the opioid crisis in the pain, cardiac, and trauma chapters equips you to address this growing healthcare challenge. • UPDATED coverage of antibiotic resistance and antibiotic shortages addresses drug supply limitations and substitutions in drugs, equipment, and procedures. • UPDATED considerations for LGBTQ+ clients include family and end-of-life issues, such as the consent to treat, who can be in the patient’s room, and who has the right to withdraw treatment.  • NEW! Enhanced, application-level questions on the companion Evolve website emphasize prompt recognition of changing trends in patient parameters. • UPDATED Lifespan Considerations: Older Adults boxes highlight gerontology and address the "graying" of our population, and UPDATED Genetics boxes feature a new Genetic Concepts box. • EXPANDED coverage reflects important new trends including interprofessional collaboration, health literacy, immigrant health, and value-based healthcare and its implications.
