Quick Look Nursing: Pathophysiology is designed to assist nursing students and practicing nurses with basic pathophysiology of common adult health problems likely to be encountered in either the inpatient or outpatient setting. Organized by a body system approach, each section begins with a brief review of anatomy and physiology and includes a listing of diagnostic measures pertinent to that system.
With the Quick Look format, common health problems associated with a particular system are discussed and goals for managing them are provided. Chapters within each section focus on major adult health problems with an emphasis on epidemiology of illness, pathophysiological process occurring, and goals for managing the condition. A diagram, chart, or table accompanies each disease process discussed.
The format and size of this text make it easy to bring into any clinical setting. Quick Look Nursing: Pathophysiology is designed to provide nursing students and practicing nurses with a convenient, portable reference tool.
