This work is designed for any nurse who has to take responsibility for monitoring critically ill patients. It contains concise, easy to find information in an accessible format.

This practical, handy-sized guide is for all nurses working in all acute areas, as well as general nurses and students learning about ECGs for the first time.

Written by an experienced resuscitation training officer, this text concentrates on ACLS within a hospital setting and is in line with new Resuscitation Council Guidelines and European Resuscitation guidelines.

A guide to recognising and treating acutely ill patients at risk of further deterioration, this book includes early warning scoring systems to identify patients at risk on the ward and the key priorities for care. Students and newly qualified staff will be equipped with the skills necessary to provide prompt and effective care.

This is a practical, accessible guide for nurses on the management and care of the dying and deceased patient. It outlines the practicalities and legal issues associated with death, the principles of caring for a patient who is dying, and the principles of dealing with death, both expected and unexpected.
