Industry Reviews
"Gilbert (professional practice, Banner Thunderbird Medical Center) provides a portable reference manual for nurses on high-risk pregnancy and delivery that is grounded in evidence-based practice nursing and medical literature. It covers medical and obstetric problems experienced during childbearing, including their incidence, etiology, physiology, and pathophysiology, as well as management protocols for advanced nurse practitioners, with an emphasis on ambulatory care prevention and inpatient high-risk care along with critical care protocols. Included is a chapter on alternative and complementary therapies.
