Synopsis

This instructive self-study guide is written to help students grasp important content in each chapter of the main text. Learning Activities include matching terms; listing important signs and symptoms; describing medical therapy, nursing measures and their rationales; and labelling illustrations. Check Yourself multiple choice questions offer a test of factual items and higher-level questions requiring application of knowledge in new ways. Case Studies help students "practice" skills with simulated clients, while Developing Insight encourages further thinking as students gain clinical experience. As appropriate, answers are either provided at the end of each chapter or left to the student's independent research in the main text.

About this title

From the Author

Our text is student friendly.
When writing this maternity nursing text for nursing students, we authors had these goals: 1) accuracy 2) currency 3) ease of reading

To this end, we kept our sentences as simple as possible. We used shorter and simpler words instead of long and complex words anytime it was possible. There are enough big words we couldn't avoid, after all! Why use more than we had to use?

We hope you find our book useful as you go through nursing school. We welcome any comments you have on our book.
