Pathophysiology: a practical approach

Pathophysiology: a practical approach - 3rd ed. - Burlington Jones & Bartlett Learning 2018

Monograph xviii, 522p. : ill. ; 29cm.

<p><em>Pathophysiology: a practical approach</em><em>, third edition,</em> employs a concept-based approach to teaching nursing students the complex, yet important topic of pathophysiology. While pathophysiology is the foundation of much of nursing education, from medical-surgical nursing to pharmacology, it is a subject that intimidates many students. Most pathophysiology textbooks are too detailed or too bare-bones, leaving students either overwhelmed or in need of more information. This text serves as a practical guide to pathophysiology by selecting the ideal level of content and delivering it in a student-friendly, accessible way.</p><p>The <em>third edition </em>takes an innovative approach that brings faculty and students together as colearners. This empowering methodology is supported by recent calls from both the Health and Medicine Division of the National Academies of Science, Engineering, and Medicine (formerly the Institute of Medicine) and the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation urging educators to change how young nurses are taught to better meet the needs of new generations. Both instructors and students praise this text for its clear writing style, use of dynamic images, and updated content reflecting the latest research and current epidemiological trends.</p>
