Test Bank For Drug Therapy in Nursing, Fourth edition: Diane Aschenbrenner
Product details:
- ISBN-10 : 1451187661
- ISBN-13 : 978-1451187663
- Author: Aschenbrenner
This text presents a complete nursing-focused framework for teaching and learning nursing pharmacology, and “places the patient” at the center of all drug and drug administration decisions and considerations. The book presents core drug knowledge using prototypes of different drug classes and emphasizes core patient variables that influence the patient’s response to therapy. Features include abundant review questions, concept maps, drug summary tables, drug interaction tables, and critical thinking scenarios that teach students how to apply pharmacology knowledge to patient care.
