Book Description

ISBN-10: 0801665426 | ISBN-13: 978-0801665424 | Publication Date: March 1994

This is a comprehensive reference for nurses involved with all aspects of cardiac surgery. It discusses the foundations of cardiac surgical nursing, and then details pre-, intra- and postoperative responsibilities for more than 60 procedures. The information provided should be of use to perioperative nurses in all roles and at all levels of expertise. Photographs of key steps in procedures prepare nurses to better understand and execute their responsibilities. Line drawings accompany the photographs to show structures and techniques that are difficult to see in actual surgery. Patient teaching is highlighted to stress the importance of self-care.

5.0 out of 5 stars ONE OF THE BEST, April 23, 2002

s. burg (Los Angeles, Ca USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Cardiac Surgery (Mosby's Perioperative Nursing) (Hardcover)

Cardiac Surgery by Patricia Seifert is one of the best cardiac books I've found. The explanations are simple and complete. This book can be understood by the lay person and appreciated by the professional. This book is one to have in your personal library. We, on the heart team, keep one on the operating room reference shelf.

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)

This review is from: Cardiac Surgery (Mosby's Perioperative Nursing) (Hardcover)

This book, while very old in the world of medical books, can still explain the entire process of cardiac surgery. Gives great basic as well as more in depth knowledge in an easy to understand manner. Love this book, it was recommended to me by an RN on my Heart team, and has been a great purchase.
