Gain the knowledge and skills needed to succeed in medical-surgical nursing with this leading textbook! Lewis's Medical-Surgical Nursing, 13th Edition, uses a conversational writing style, a focus on nursing concepts and clinical trends, evidence-based content, and basic pathophysiology review to provide the solid foundation required in a rapidly changing healthcare environment. Comprehensive chapters cover topics including nursing management and collaboration, health promotion, acute interventions, and ambulatory care. Summary tables and boxes make it easy to find essential information, and a building-block approach makes even the most complex concepts simple to grasp. In addition to three new chapters, this edition includes a stronger focus on the nursing process, social determinants of health, clinical judgment, and preparation for the Next-Generation NCLEX® Examination.
