Language: English.\u003c\/p\u003e\n Woodhead and Wicker's new text will be the foremost reference source for all perioperative practitioners. The content mirrors the dynamics of modern perioperative practice by focusing on surgical interventions in all the environments in which it is currently practised, including A\u0026amp;E departments, general practice clinics, intensive care units, and at the site of serious accidents. Theatre practice is becoming increasingly specialist; this book does not attempt to to reflect the needs of all specialties, but instead concentrates on the principles of practice, applicable to any setting and any specialty. It has a very practical focus - it aims to be the book that nurses and ODPs reach for in order to answer their practical questions - but is not be procedure-driven. Instead, it sets out the principles of perioperative practice, from which practitioners will be able to develop their own practice techniques.\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReflects principles of practice, applicable to any perioperative environment\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStrong practical focus\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEdited by two of the biggest 'names' in the international perioperative nursing sphere, with contributions from other well-known and authoritative sources\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExcellent opportunities to develop links with the National Association of Theatre Nurses and the European Operating Room Association\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe team of contributors are experienced practitioners working directly with perioperative patients or in perioperative education\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAn original model for ethical practice is proposed: the Reid model is the first such ethical model to be proposed for the perioperative environment\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncludes one of the only chapters in any perioperative book which specifically focuses on the care of the elderly.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe research chapter encourages the use of evidence based practice and the development of perioperative research\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe unique chapter on care of the mentally ill will support practitioners who are not qualified in psychiatry to care for mentally ill patients.

It is attractively structured, with a mix of photographs, charts and bullet points offering a variety of routes to the information... This book does much to demonstrate that the professional practitioner provides holistic care for the perioperative patient... An excellent chapter on leadership discusses bullying and harassment, as well as management strategies to combat them.\u003cbr\u003eAnne Mottram, Lecturer in Nursing, Salford University\u003cbr\u003eNursing Standard, Volume 20, No 41           About the Author   RGN, PgDMS                                           ","brand":"Kate Woodhead, Paul Wicker B.Sc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46071307632874,"sku":"9780443072857","price":76.26,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0714\/5301\/6298\/files\/21SpBbhNCSL._SL1500.jpg?v=1781294437","url":"https:\/\/textbookme.store\/products\/a-textbook-of-perioperative-care","provider":"TextbookMe","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
