Critical Care Manual of Clinical Nursing Procedures

The second edition of Critical Care Manual of Clinical Nursing Procedures is a practical overview of essential procedures for the care of critically ill patients. Beginning with chapters outlining the current scope of critical care, the book adopts a systematic stage-by-stage approach from admission to discharge. At each stage, it provides insights into physiology, key procedures, and the relevant evidence base. Now fully updated to incorporate the latest research and best practices, this volume is poised to remain an indispensable resource for the next generation of critical care providers.

Readers of the second edition will find:

In-depth, beat-by-beat analysis of key procedures in critical care
Interventions underpinned by the latest evidence
Content aligned with the National Critical Care Competency Framework and endorsed by the British Association of Critical Care Nurses

Critical Care Manual of Clinical Nursing Procedures is ideal for nurses working in a critical care unit, nurses undertaking post-qualification specialist courses in critical care, or other healthcare professionals working as part of a critical care team.
