Testing for Toxicity
نویسنده
چکیده
ACCIDENT and Emergency Medicine is a relatively new but rapidly expanding specialty, and although many textbooks related to it have been published in recent years for doctors, the same has not occurred for nurses. This book, written by a team of doctors in Lancaster, covers a wide range of the emergencies and not so acute conditions seen in every casualty department, and the nurse is given very good guidance in how to manage the department not only efficiently, but compassionately. Special emphasis has been placed on resuscitation and the chapters on the physiology of the cardiovascular and respiratory systems and its relation to the restoration of blood volume and artificial ventilation are very well written. Nurses who are on Accident and Emergency courses, and those who have been working in casualty departments for many years will find much to interest and stimulate them in this book, which has been written by doctors who have obviously had practical experience in emergency care.
