This guide presents clinical protocols and the nursing procedures needed to complete them.

Nursing Procedures and Protocols is designed to help nurses react to clinical situations appropriately with little or no guidance from colleagues.

 

Protocols represent the framework for management of a specific disorder or clinical situation, while the procedures that compliment a specific protocol represent the numerous detailed steps for implementing that protocol.

 

This book features over 300 major peer-reviewed protocols and nursing procedures on a wide range of clinical topics. Each procedure is described in sequential step-by-step detail.

 

Also included are over 300 illustrations, checklists, tables, and flowcharts. Icons are used throughout the book to draw attention to the evidence base for a particular protocol, alerts for specific considerations related to the protocol, and troubleshooting tips for equipment used in the protocol. The book is organized in this manner:

  • Fundamentals

  • Infection control

  • Medication administration

  • Intravascular therapy

  • Cardiovascular care

  • Pulmonary care

  • Neurologic care

  • Gastrointestinal care

  • Renal and urologic care

  • Musculoskeletal care

  • Skin care

  • Endocrine and hematology care

Protocols range from basic to complex, with simple illustrations and cross-references to related problems. Entries include descriptions of procedures and equipment, patient- teaching pointers, special considerations, notes on home care, and information on documentation, plus red flags and troubleshooting tips.
