註釋This new book presents pharmacology with the strongest nursing process emphasis available. It focuses on relevant nursing implications within each chapter, and highlights key nursing diagnoses throughout. Nursing Pharmacology also addresses the legal, cultural, and biopsychosocial aspects of pharmacology. It uses a holistic approach to emphasize life span issues, highlighting key paediatric and geriatric implications. The book also explores the changes affecting nursing pharmacology brought about by increased home health care assignments and other contemporary factors.
  • Each chapter begins with a chapter outline that integrates both key terms and key objectives within the outline.
    • The text is broken down into manageable sub-sections. "Concept Review" boxes help readers to check whether they have understood important concepts along the way.
  • Uses a prototype approach to teach students the characteristics of a drug classification bygiving all the details of one drug as an example. Then the text provides information on other drugs within the classification that differs from the drug prototype.
    • Prototype descriptions include drug-drug and drug-environment interactions, diagnostic test alterations, life span considerations, and more.
  • Drug tables in each chapter consistently present drugs by generic name, and describe how they are supplied, their dosages and routes of administration, and the relevant nursing considerations.
    • Standardized body system figures clearly indicate the sites of action and/or adverse effects for each drug.
  • "Nursing Research" boxes summarize recent findings, reviewing articles and providing possible student activities that relate to the specified topic.
    • Each chapter has a separate section addressing life span implications for all drugs.
  • A section on therapeutic nutrition covers volume and ion content of body fluids, enteral and parenteral nutrition, water soluble vitamins, fat-soluble vitamins, and minerals.
