| Summary: | Even after 25 years, Wong's Clinical Manual of Pediatric Nursing, 7th Edition is still your go-to clinical guide to caring for children and their families in the hospital, community, and home. With care plans, assessment tools, skills and procedures, patient teaching, and reference data in a concise, reader-friendly format, Wong's Clinical Manual of Pediatric Nursing, 7th Edition is five books in one! Plus, now with an accompanying Evolve website with modifiable nursing care plans, medication tables, emergency treatment information, illustrated dermatologic problems, and Spanish translations for many of the patient teaching handouts included in the book, there's even more information right at your fingertips. Up-to-date immunization, nutrition, and CPR guidelines help you treat your patients according to the most current standards of care. Community Focus boxes highlight issues related to treating children outside of the acute care setting. Atraumatic Care boxes help you minimize the pain and stress of procedures for the child, family, and yourself by outlining pain and stress management techniques. Redesigned Nursing Care Plans incorporate current NANDA nursing diagnoses, NIC and NOC terminology for the most up-to-date information. Evidence-Based Practice boxes support the most critical issues for practice and intervention so you are better prepared for important tasks. Safety Alerts give you guidance for handling procedures in the safest, most efficient manner possible. Added procedures, including chest tube management, extraventricular drainage devices, monitoring intracranial pressure, monitoring arterial blood gases, endotracheal tube management, ostomy care, and suture and staple removal, prepare you for more situations in the pediatric care setting. Evolve website includes pediatric medication tables, emergency treatment information, full-color photos of many dermatologic conditions, modifiable nursing care plans, and Spanish translations for the most-used patient and family teaching handouts from the book. |
