Nursing Health Assessment:
A Best Practice Approach, 2e.

the patient's responses are unexpected, or the patient's condition changes over time. Unique features assist with application,
analysis, and critical thinking skill development to better prepare your students for practice. Normal and abnormal findings are
presented in side-by-side columns and thorough and comprehensive examinations are included for each specific topic. Additional
features, a robust ancillary program, and book-related media build on the in-text cases to reinforce correct elements of subjective
and objective data collection and variations necessary for different problems, age groups, and cultures.
