Book excerpt: Black''s Medical-Surgical Nursing: Clinical Management for Positive Outcomes, First South Asia Edition, takes you from basic to advanced medical-surgical nursing with a number of online resources that make it easier to teach and learn concepts. This text provides a reliable foundation in anatomy and physiology, pathophysiology, medical management, and nursing care for the full spectrum of adult health conditions. The roles of various health care professionals in managing each disorder and disease are clearly outlined, and evidence-based practice and clinical guidelines are integrated throughout the text.

Care Plans highlight nursing diagnoses and collaborative problems, expected outcomes, interventions with rationales, and evaluation to help you prioritize tasks and determine the appropriate treatment.

Concept Maps illustrate the links among pathophysiological processes, clinical manifestations, medical treatment, and nursing interventions. Integrating Pharmacology boxes help you understand how medications can be used for disease management by exploring common classifications of routinely used medications. Bridge to Critical Care and Bridge to Home Health Care boxes introduce you to critical care and home health nursing by connecting these related specialties to medical-surgical nursing.
