TAILIEUCHUNG - The Biological Basis of Nursing: Clinical Observations

Biological sciences in nursing has seen a change in status over the last 20 years. As a nurse educator, I became aware that with the introduction of the ‘nursing model’ all signs of biology were banished from the curriculum. Anatomy and physiology were thought to be akin to the ‘medical model’, and as such they fell outside the nurse’s territory. At all costs, nurses had to be seen as autonomous practitioners in their own right. But autonomy at what price? Several generations of nurses were trained with minimal understanding of how the body works, or how it reacts to trauma, drugs and disease. They had little conception of. | The Biological Basis of Nursing Clinical Observations William T. Blows Also available as a printed book see title verso for ISBN details The Biological Basis of Nursing Clinical Observations A thorough understanding of the biological science underlying fundamental nursing observations such as taking the temperature or measuring the pulse enables nurses to make well-informed clinical decisions quickly and accurately. The Biological Basis of Nursing Clinical Observations integrates clear explanations of the techniques involved in these procedures with the biological knowledge which gives them meaning. For each topic William Blows explains the pathological basis for variations in observed results. This helpful text gives nurse practitioners at all levels the understanding needed to perform clinical observations accurately make accurate judgements about the patient s condition make accurate decisions concerning patient care It looks at temperature cardiovascular observations the pulse and blood pressure respiratory observations eliminatory observations urinary and digestive neurological observations consciousness eyes movement The basic observations taught at the start of training are explored at a fundamental level while neurological observations are explained in more depth. Generously illustrated this is an essential text for nurses in training. It Will also be of great use to clinical staff and nurse educators. William T.
