An excellent reference for graduate students and practicing NPs, this comprehensive guidebook clearly delineates the role of the nurse practitioner in the intensive care environment. Critical Care discusses in detail the development and scope of this fast-growing new role for NPs.
Significant emphasis is given to the complex pathophysiology and appropriate management of common problems encountered in the critical care environment, including trauma, infections, and disease. One chapter is also dedicated to the medical, legal, and ethical aspects of critical care.
