Winningham's Critical Thinking Cases In Nursing: Medical-Surgical, Pediatric, Maternity, And Psychiatric, 5e Available To Downloads
Develop your critical thinking and clinical reasoning skills with 150 realistic case studies from the four major clinical practice areas: medical-surgical, pediatric, maternity, and psychiatric/mental health nursing. Each case covers a common problem, drawn from actual clinical experiences and written by nurses who are clinical experts. All cases have been thoroughly updated and revised to reflect current clinical practices, with integrated content on pharmacology, nutrition, and diagnostic/laboratory tests to encourage you to think critically about all aspects of care. This fifth edition also features an increased emphasis on patient management, and new documentation and communication exercises. Plus new NCLEX® Examination format-questions help you prepare for success on the NCLEX® Examination and provide safe, quality patient care.Three-part organization presents cases in three parts: 1) Medical-Surgical Cases; 2) Pediatric, Maternity, and Psychiatric Cases; and 3) Other/Advanced Cases, the latter covering key topics such as multi-system disorders and emergency situations. Realistic case study approach incorporates cases drawn from actual clinical experiences to help you identify changes, anticipate possible complications, and initiate therapeutic interventions. Increasing case complexity provides you with a foundation on which to build as you advance to more difficult cases.      Two new pediatric case studies strengthen your ability to recognize and effectively manage common disorders presenting in pediatric patients. New NCLEX Examination-format questions have been added throughout, including multiple choice, prioritization/ordering, chart/exhibit, and dosage calculation questions. Increased number of higher-level questions requires clinical reasoning rather than simply memorizing and recalling information. An emphasis on patient management reinforces the type of clinical decision-making needed in the clinical setting as well as reflecting the type of questions on the latest NCLEX Examination. Over 25 new illustrations and graphics such as ECG strips, lab/diagnostic test reports, anatomical diagrams, and medication labels are now interwoven throughout the book. New documentation and communication exercises ask you to document relevant patient information or to use the "SBAR" communication technique to communicate patient findings to the physician.

It's a textbook and It would be great for studying, but there is no way to know if I'm taking the right steps because the answers aren't given anywhere. Not in the book, not on the publisher's website. No where. So unless you have an instructor checking your work to make sure that it is correct, this book is a waste of time.
Do not buy! We purchased this book for continuing education at our hospital. There are no answers for the questions, and we tried to get the teachers guide and of course they would only let college instructors receive the guide. It took forever for their response regarding the teachers guide, therefore we were past the time of being able to return the book. Save yourself the money, you learn nothing from this book! It is only scenarios!
We were required to purchase this book for 2nd semester as a self study guide. There is no answer key and it is very frustrating not knowing if the material I research and find is correct for the situation.
this book was difficult to go through on an individual basis, could be different in the classroom setting if its being taught. also no answers so there is no way to check if your train of thinking is correct.
I received this book along with all my other required books in a timely manner and I paid a great deal less for them then I would have if I purchased them from my colleges bookstore. Book was brand new as described and wrapped in protective cellophane.
We were required to get this book and i have only opened it once. It is nothing but case studies and they do not help me very much.
Required for my 2nd semester in nursing. This book is way too hard for 2nd semester students and I hate that you cannot check your answers anywhere!!!
Great tool for studying but you can't confirm all your answers. (NO ANSWER KEY which I think absolutely sucks!!!) ... I like it but not that much!
