Description
This practical reference was developed to meet the needs of critical care and emergency nurses, physicians, and pharmacists in administering
complex drugs given by IV infusion. Presented in an easy-to-use handbook format, it contains information on how to dose and administer
complex and commonly used critical care drugs. Each drug is listed with information about what its most common uses are, how to prepare
the drug infusion for patient administration, the most common dosages, the most common warnings and adverse reactions, compatibility
with other drug infusions, and general nursing considerations. One of its most unique features is the inclusion of calculation factors.
Dosing charts allow the healthcare professional to quickly determine the appropriate dose in a matter of seconds.
