Synopsis
STROKE NURSING THROUGH PATIENT CASES
Master Stroke Nursing Care Through Realistic Patient Cases, Clinical Reasoning, and Practical Nursing Knowledge.
Stroke care demands more than recognizing symptoms. It requires rapid assessment, sound clinical judgment, timely intervention, continuous monitoring, compassionate nursing care, and an understanding of the patient's journey from emergency treatment to long-term recovery.
Stroke Nursing Through Patient Cases is a comprehensive, case-based clinical textbook designed to help nursing students, registered nurses, clinical educators, and healthcare professionals develop the knowledge, confidence, and critical-thinking skills needed to understand and support patients experiencing stroke.
Rather than presenting stroke nursing as isolated facts and procedures, this book brings clinical concepts to life through realistic patient scenarios. Each case connects neurological findings, underlying disease mechanisms, assessment priorities, nursing responsibilities, potential complications, and recovery needs—helping readers understand not only what to do, but why it matters.
From sudden neurological deterioration and emergency stroke activation to thrombolytic therapy, mechanical thrombectomy, rehabilitation, discharge planning, and secondary prevention, this textbook provides an integrated understanding of nursing care across the stroke continuum.
WHAT YOU WILL LEARN
- Recognize Stroke and Respond with Confidence: Identify ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke presentations, warning signs, stroke mimics, and time-critical neurological emergencies.
- Strengthen Neurological Assessment Skills: Understand cerebral circulation, vascular territories, neurological deficits, structured assessment, and recognition of clinical deterioration.
- Navigate Emergency Stroke Care: Explore stroke-system activation, diagnostic imaging, laboratory evaluation, intravenous thrombolysis, and mechanical thrombectomy.
- Deliver Safe Acute Stroke Nursing Care: Learn essential approaches to neurological monitoring, dysphagia precautions, aspiration prevention, positioning, mobility, nutrition, and complication prevention.
- Understand Hemorrhagic Stroke Management: Examine intracerebral and subarachnoid hemorrhage, neurological instability, and the nursing implications of specialized treatment.
- Support Rehabilitation and Functional Recovery: Explore communication difficulties, cognitive changes, emotional distress, mobility limitations, and strategies that promote independence.
25 Comprehensive Chapters: Five carefully organized Parts connect stroke science, emergency care, bedside nursing, rehabilitation, and professional practice.
Clinical Reasoning at Every Stage: Case analyses encourage readers to interpret findings, recognize risks, and make informed nursing decisions.
Practical Learning Resources: Clinical reference tables, chapter review questions, Section Exercises, and five useful appendices reinforce essential knowledge.
A Whole-Patient Approach: The book addresses neurological recovery alongside communication, emotional health, dignity, family support, and quality of life.
Ideal for nursing students, registered nurses, newly qualified nurses, stroke-unit nurses, emergency and critical-care nurses, rehabilitation nurses, clinical educators, and allied healthcare professionals seeking a stronger understanding of stroke care.
From the first warning sign to rehabilitation and life beyond stroke, every patient encounter offers an opportunity for better clinical reasoning and safer, more compassionate care.
