ICU Manual for Nurses

by Prakash Shastri

This book focuses on the “ICU Manual for Nurses”. Critical care nursing has grown as a specialty around the world. However, in many regions, there is still an urgent need for professional education to improve the outcome of patient suffering from life-threatening illness. Critical care nurses work in settings where patients require complex assessment, high intensity therapies, interventions, and continuous vigilance. The contribution of nurses toward achieving the goals in critical care is equal to any other healthcare professionals, if not more. The book “ICU Manual for Nurses” is easy-to-read and easy-to-understand. The information contained in the chapters is well structured and presented in a clear, concise and stepwise fashion. The book has nine sections covering from the essentials of patient care like assessment, infections, mechanical ventilation and monitoring to the specialty nursing. The book “ICU Manual for Nurses” covers all the important areas which the ICU nurses need to be taught, from theory to practice, and from ventilators and other machines to the infection control measures like handwashing and others. All these chapters have been written with scientifically accurate language, and it is still easy to read because of the lucidity.
