Supports nursing practice and clinical judgment better than any other manual! Written by a laboratory scientist and a nurse educator, this easy-to-read, full-color manual delivers all the information you need to understand how tests work, interpret their results, and provide quality patient care--pre-test, intra-test, and post-test.

With a nursing focus and an emphasis on clinical judgment, this manual provides interpretive guidance on the reasons for the studies and explains why they are important, and what it means for nurses and the care they provide to their patients. Tests and procedures are listed in alphabetical order by their complete name for quick reference. The integrated index allows fast searches by abbreviation, synonym, disease/disorder, specimen type, or test classification.
  • New & Updated! The most current information as well as new diagnostic tests, terminology, changes in health care and how the content relates to nursing
  • New & Updated! Tab-like labels to quickly identify core lab and diagnostic studies frequently seen in practice and the addition of a list of core studies to the Critical Findings appendices as well as labels for the "Point of Care" studies
  • New & Updated! Online instructor test bank organized by body system with page number references
  • Focus on Clinical Judgment with "Nursing Implications, Nursing Process, Clinical Judgment" sections, plus a clinical judgment icon in each "Nursing Implications" section, and a "Clinical Judgment" statement at the end of every entry
  • "Student Decision Making Model" to help learners visualize critical thinking and clinical judgment
  • "Core Lab Study" labels identifying 35 need-to-know, clinically significant laboratory studies
  • "Potential Nursing Problems" tables that present problems, signs and symptoms, and interventions related to the study
  • Reference Ranges in both conventional and SI units (with the SI unit conversion factor) that include age- and gender-specific variations when indicated and normal variations due to cultural considerations
  • Interfering Factors, including food, natural products, timing of test, handling of specimens, underlying patient conditions, and drugs that may interfere with the results of the test
