Available To Downloads

This is a concise, easy-to-use guide to executing more than 60 commonly performed clinical procedures, including sonography, in emergent, urgent, and ambulatory care settings. The procedures are consistently formatted, presented in detail, and organized into system-specific categories for easy access to information. The second edition is the only such resource to include two new chapters completely devoted to bedside ultrasound and how it is used as a tool to enhance the accuracy of numerous procedures. Grounded in fundamental sonography physics, these chapters provide readers with a clear foundational understanding of how to perform ultrasound with confidence. Additionally, eight chapters describe the use of ultrasound to increase the accuracy and efficiency of specific procedures such as locating a foreign body in the eye or soft body tissues, among other applications. The second edition also describes 13 new procedures and reflects the latest guidelines and evidence-based practice used for promotion of safely performed procedures. Each procedure is presented using a concise and consistent format that includes background considerations, indication for performing the procedure, how to perform it safely and correctly, contraindications, required documentation, complications, post-procedure considerations, and education points. Original photos, actual sonographic footage, line drawings, and tables reinforce the written content and provide clear directions regarding exactly how to perform each procedure. Author’s pearls and extensive references at the end of each chapter further enhance the book’s utility.

I really love this book. I am currently an emergency RN seeking my FNP and planning to work in my ER upon graduation. For what my MSN program is lacking in teaching clinical procedures, etc., this book really fills in a lot of the gaps. I think if you are needing a very comprehensive, basic introduction, this is the perfect book. It goes into a lot of details on procedures which is great, and includes excellent illustrations and pictures as well. There is also access to online videos which I have not watched yet, but plan to. I don't think it is as fully comprehensive as a book you could probably get for more money but it is great for a really decent introduction. I would highly, highly recommend this book as an excellent place to start!If you found my review at all helpful, it'd be wicked cool if you'd tap the "yes" button below. Thanks!

I sent this back. I bought this book as it was priced well compared to another reference. There are fewer procedures included than expected and many of the topics were somewhat obscure. Just not user friendly nor particularly useful. Would have been more helpful to show step by step procedures of common procedures.

Very clearly written procedures and explanatory text. While the procedures included may be more than you need in a basic procedure course for nurse practitioner students, the text will serve graduates well once they enter the practice arena. We also appreciate that the first author is a doctoral-prepared NP.
