En omfattande bedömning av hela patientens hälsostatus är den grund på vilken vårdbeslut baseras. Detta gäller inte minst personens fysiska hälsostatus. Sjuksköterskor förväntas se och bedöma patienten som en hel individ som är mer än summan av sina delar, där fysiska, känslomässiga, psykologiska, intellektuella, sociala, kulturella och andliga behov kan vara mer eller mindre i förgrunden. Det bästa sättet att utveckla denna bedömningsförmåga är att lära sig ett systematiskt förhållningssätt.Boken fokuserar på bedömning av patientens fysiska hälsostatus och redogör för bästa sätt att ta en fullständig anamnes. Den summerar också de viktigaste kliniska färdigheterna som behövs för att utveckla och förbättra förmågan att göra kroppsundersökningar med syfte att, på ett kompetent sätt, identifiera vårdbehov samt planera och utföra bästa möjliga vård. Klinisk undersökningsmetodik för sjuksköterskor är en oumbärlig handledning för sjuksköterskor i grundutbildning eller som påbörjat resan mot sin specialistutbildning.

"The authors of this book have produced a seminal text that explores clinical effectiveness with regard to the role of the Clinical Nurse Specialist and Nurse Practitioner ... For the student it provides an opportunity to understand how clinically effective care is provided." - Extract from the Foreword by Sue Norman - Chief Executive/Registrar, UKCC.Clinical effectiveness is a concept of central importance for health care professionals, and yet it is often unclear exactly what it is, how it can be applied, and how it should influence the delivery of care.This stimulating text clarifies what clinical effectiveness is and explains how it can be achieved in practice. Written by experienced practitioners and academics, it presents a wide range of research and case studies that demonstrate clinically effective care and the necessity for evidence-based practice.Drawing on their own original research into clinical effectiveness, the authors highlight key issues influencing practice and examine them in the light of new research. They combine solid evidence with guidelines for practice to show how a real difference can be made to the delivery of care.This balanced and engaging text will be an essential resource for all health care professionals wishing to enhance their practice, and a valuable guide for students who need to understand how clinically effective care is delivered in practice.

This book provides healthcare professionals with a practice theory for the care and management of patients who have been diagnosed with cancer. It explores what patients experience and how healthcare professionals can assist them in dealing with their uncertainty and fear as well as planning for the future. Unique to the book is its explication of the emerging theory, ‘The Omnipresence of Cancer’, which is set in the context of a discussion of earlier theories also concerned with cancer care. Chapters demonstrate how ‘The Omnipresence of Cancer’ has been developed, validated through research and being further tested in relation to cancer care. In particular, a chapter on philosophical reflections using theory to produce knowledge for practice is included. Each chapter provides essential background, a synthesis of the current state of knowledge, and practice examples associated with cancer care. The combination of theoretical reflection and practice examples is designed to promote comprehension and guidance on implementation of the theory, as well as recommendations for practice. This book will be of significant interest to healthcare students and professionals working in the field of cancer care and oncology, particularly healthcare professionals working in advanced practice roles and nurse educators. It is also anticipated that professionals working in pastoral care, occupational therapy, social work and radiography will be interested in this book.
