Vårdtiderna är korta, intensiva och de patienter som vårdas vid akutsjukvårdens vårdavdelningar är idag svårt sjuka. Denna bok är därför en ovärderlig tillgång för studenter i grundutbildning till sjuksköterska inför deras praktik inom akutsjukvården. Även nyexaminerade sjuksköterskor kan ha nytta av boken. Innehållet är kärnfullt och lättillgängligt utformat så att läsaren snabbt hittar information. Det är en heltäckande sammanställning av viktiga observationer och vårdåtgärder som inkluderar kunskap om övervakning av gravida kvinnor samt patienter med inflammatoriska tillstånd, vid blodtransfusioner och vid svår smärta.
