DESCRIPTION
Written by expert pharmacology educators and clinicians,
Abrams’ Clinical Drug
Therapy
has a long tradition of guiding students and instructors through the
practice of safe and effective medication administration. Highly praised for its
organized and readable presentation, the text explains the "why" behind each
nursing action, and emphasizes individualized nursing care and drug therapy.
Filled with vibrant illustrations, including new concept maps, the text provides
a solid foundation for understanding clinical drug therapy, evidence-based
standards for administration, and how to prevent or minimize adverse effects.
Complemented with exciting free online resources, the textbook employs
innovative features that guide students through the course, while also preparing
for success on the NCLEX® Examination and in nursing practice. Also included
is a free copy of Lippincott's Photo Atlas of Medication Administration, which
uses the nursing process format to provide step-by-step nursing skills (with
rationales). In addition to being completely illustrated, the Photo Atlas also
contains documentation guidelines and samples, and Unexpected Situations,
which explain how to respond to unanticipated outcomes. Topics include
removing medication from an ampule, removing medication from a vial, mixing medications from two vials in
one syringe, administering an intradermal injection, and more.
