Abstract

Initial Management of Acute Medical Patients: A Guide for Nurses and Healthcare Practitioners builds on the success of the first edition in meeting the need for a nursing text which relates to the assessment and management of acutely ill medical patients. This second edition has been extensively updated and expanded to include greater focus on the recognition and management of those patients whose condition deteriorates while they are in hospital. The book focuses on the assessment and management of acutely ill medical patients during the first 24 hours of their care but will also appeal to primary and intermediate care professionals whose aim may be to prevent patients’ admission to hospital. Written predominantly by nurses for nurses, the book has been designed as a quick reference text for use in clinical practice. To act as a source of further reading, the book is extensively referenced throughout, thus increasing its appeal to nurses at all stages of their careers and to those who are undertaking further study.
