Using a holistic body systems approach, information is organized into three main sections: Anatomy and Physiology, Examination, and Variations from Health. This systematic and practical method of data collection helps you make important decisions about nursing interventions for promoting, maintaining, and restoring health." "Inside you'll find: hundreds of full-color illustrations depicting anatomy and physiology, examination procedures, and normal and abnormal findings; coverage of interviewing skills and techniques, including obtaining a health history and assessing health beliefs and behaviors; Cultural Considerations boxes throughout that prepare you to assess an increasingly diverse client population; Risk Factors boxes that enhance health promotion by identifying important risk factors; additional considerations for client groups with special needs, including pregnant clients, pediatric clients, aging clients, and clients with functional limitations; expanded coverage of pain assessment, including a pain assessment scale; and sample documentation and diagnoses that present case studies and illustrate how to chart and determine specific diagnoses."--BOOK JACKET.
