Author Name: Prof.Nicola Sharon Ambrose | Format: Paperback | Genre : Educational & Professional | Other Details
PREFACE This first edition of Textbook of Cardiology & Intensive Care for Nurses and Paramedics presents many important features that will enable a healthcare professional to get a complete understanding of the working of the heart, and the presentations of an inappropriate working heart that necessitate an array of treatment in the form of different medications, procedures & surgical interventions. The book also focuses on assessing 10 important vital signs that could possibly alert to a cardiac arrest and if prudently picked up by professionals could avert the increasing number of Code Blues in the hospital. Yet, in the eventuality of a Code blue, this book also equips you how to deliver Cardio Pulmonary Resuscitation according to the Advanced Cardiac Life Support (ACLS) guidelines given by AHA. This book is designed for Healthcare professionals working in a cardiac, ICU or OT set up and for all level healthcare students. Since Healthcare duties are manifold and cover a wide range of prudent functions and responsibilities, mandate that a healthcare professional is knowledgeable, skillful and knows how to manage state of the art technology coupled with Critical Thinking, Decision Making and Problem solving skills. It is my desire that the wholesomeness of the content of this book, its style and organization will contribute to making healthcare students and professionals competent in providing quality patient care contributing to Excellence in Healthcare.
