*A patient-centered approach to pharmacology in nursing practice
Pharmacology: Connections to Nursing Practice links pharmacology to
nursing practice and patient care. Features illuminate connections
between pharmacology and nursing practice, from patient scenarios and
practice applications, to lifespan considerations, alternative
therapies, and gender and cultural influences. The use of prototype
drugs helps nurses learn a vast range of medications, while organization
by body systems and diseases places drugs in the context of their
therapeutic applications. The 4th edition includes more than 30 new
FDA-approved drugs, more than 20 new visuals clarifying concepts, and a
new feature developing the clinical decision-making skills of advanced
practice nurses.
