Gain the knowledge and skills you need to succeed in medical-surgical nursing! Lewis's Medical-Surgical Nursing, 12th Edition uses a conversational writing style, a focus on nursing concepts and clinical trends, evidence-based content, and basic pathophysiology review to provide the solid foundation needed in a rapidly changing healthcare environment. Comprehensive chapters cover topics including nursing management and collaboration, health promotion, acute interventions, and ambulatory care. Summary tables and boxes make it easy to find essential information, and a building-block approach makes even the most complex concepts simple to grasp. Written by a team of distinguished educators led by Mariann M. Harding, this edition adds three new chapters and a stronger focus on the nursing process, clinical judgment, and preparation for the Next-Generation NCLEX (R) Examination.
