{"product_id":"9780702044458","title":"Practices in Children's Nursing E-Book","description":"The skills required by children’s nurses are many and varied, and are undertaken in a variety of settings.  This book provides a clinical manual of common practices.  Each practice is research-based and presented in a common format which covers: Objectives, Rationale, Factors to note, Guidelines, Positioning, Equipment, Method, Special observations and possible complications, and References and further reading. The guidelines have been written specifically for children’s nursing by contributors from well-known children’s units.  They are not simply adaptations from adult practices and therefore recognise the unique differences between adult and children’s nursing.  The introductory section covers common concepts and infection control.  There are also appendices on the use of play as a distraction, and on complementary therapies.\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe common format of each practice makes the book easy to use and refer to in a clinical setting.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEach practice is based on the latest research to ensure it is evidence-based and up to date\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIntroductory chapters cover issues common to all practices to make the book easier to use.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe appendix on play reinforces its common usage as a distraction technique\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA chapter on complementary therapies explains these as they are becoming more widespread\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAll practices have been reviewed by regional centres to avoid parochialism\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e \u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eContent reorganised to reflect the Essential Skills Clusters from the NMC\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNew chapter on communicating with children\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAll chapters updated to reflect the current evidence base\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Elsevier Health Sciences","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47106440364272,"sku":"9780702044458","price":63.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9780702044458_p0.jpg?v=1763621006","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780702044458","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
