I found this manual to be very useful in day to day clinical applications. The manual is clearly organized according to systems, methodology, signs and symptoms, assessments and plan of care from a medical-sugical patient, to a cardiology patient to the trauma patient. In the ever changing clinical setting and the large variety of etiologies, this manual can be a valuable tool.

I am very fond of this book as I start my career as an ICU nurse. I use this book to look up topics in general as well as collaborative interventions and treatments. This book provides a lot of insight that fits between what you get in class/school and what you hear from a preceptor. If you are new to ICU and want to fill in those mental blanks on disease processes from a critical care point of view, this is a great book to choose. Also, there is a ton of practical, useful information such as "how-to's", guidelines and drug profiles that are all highlighted in red so they are easy to find within the section you are reviewing.

In a nutshell, each major topic (Acute GI bleed, for example) has the following sections: patho, assessment, diagnostic tests, collaborative management, and nursing diagnoses/interventions. They are all fairly in-depth in order to explain the information (not just summarize it, like a review book might).

I highly recommend!
