This practical clinical reference can be used by nursing students at all levels as a textbook in theory classes for integrating laboratory and diagnostic data and in clinical settings as a quick reference. It guides the nurse in planning what needs to be assessed, monitored, treated, and taught regarding pretest requirements, intratest procedures, and post-test care.
All tests and procedures are listed in alphabetical order by their complete name, plus the comprehensive, integrated index allows fast searches by abbreviation, synonym, disease state or condition, organ system, specimen type, or test classification.
