The new edition of this popular text has been completely revised and updated. The content has been re-organised into two parts: Section I deals with core themes and Principles of Surgical Nursing and the overall surgical process, Section II concentrates onMajor Common Procedures and focuses on the applied anatomy and physiology underpinning surgical interventions and the rationale for nursing care. The approach reflects the changes in both surgical nursing and the educational preparation required, whilst retaining the accessibility and practical nursing focus of previous editions.
This book will be useful for experienced nurses and practical doctors.
