Abstract: Written by a highly respected author in the lab and diagnostic test field, this comprehensive text/reference explains in detail the clinical significance of tests and diagnostic procedures. It focuses on the human element in the nurse's role in relation to diagnostic testing--e.g., health teaching, client preparation, and assessment for adverse reactions to diagnostic procedures--and on the independent role of the nurse. Related tests or procedures are grouped to highlight common nursing diagnoses. The book includes the pathophysiologic conditions that cause altered laboratory values; implications of high and low test results; current NANDA nursing diagnoses, with specific nursing interventions for each test and procedure; medical diagnoses and medical interventions, and how they differ from nursing diagnoses and nursing interventions; and extensive references, with a strong focus on current nursing literature that emphasizes research. A wide range of examples includes all age groups (newborn to the aged) from a variety of practice settings, and case studies give readers an opportunity to practice interpreting lab data to formulate nursing diagnoses. to Childbearing Years. Ideal as a review for Nurses who want to update their knowledge in specific areas, and for Nurses in clinical settings who want a quick reference.
