Riassunto

With these engaging, interactive videos, you'll be able to understand and master more than 140 basic, intermediate, and advanced nursing procedures. Each video demonstrates how to perform a specific skill in step-by-step format, according to the most current nursing practice. For appropriate procedures, animations show what's happening inside the patient's body. NCLEX® examination-style review questions help you evaluate your understanding of each skill.

• 130 skills are demonstrated step by step, including over 11 hours of video.
• Procedure videos clearly and accurately demonstrate how to perform each skill, and include printable procedure guidelines.
• Checklists in PDF format are included for each skill.
• A consistent format for each skill provides easy access to information:
• Safety includes key safety considerations for the specific skills.
• Delegation clarifies the RN's role and the tasks that may be assigned to other personnel.
• Equipment features a hot-spot photo of all equipment required for a procedure, identifying each piece when rolled over by the cursor.
• Documentation provides guidelines and examples of what and how to document care as well as the patient's response.
• Follow-up care outlines appropriate assessment, evaluation, and interventions.
• NCLEX exam-style review questions for each skill include rationales for all options to help you review and evaluate your comprehension.

• New Blood Therapy section in the Advanced Skills DVD includes three new skills: Preparing for Transfusion, Initiating Transfusion, and Monitoring for Adverse Reaction to Transfusion.
