"Infusion Therapy in Clinical Practice" is the second edition of "Intravenous Therapy: Clinical Principles and Practice." The title has been changed to reflect the broadening scope of practice for the intravenous nurse including intrathecal, intraosseous, and epidural procedures, as well as subcutaneous pain management, conscious sedation, and the use of catheters not being inserted intravenously. "Infusion Therapy in Clinical Practice" is a reference text that comprehensively addresses every aspect of infusion therapy. The content is applicable to all settings where infusion therapy is practiced. All nine core areas of infusion/intravenous nursing as defined by the INS Certification Corporation are covered in this text: technical and clinical, fluid and electrolytes, pharmacology, infection control, transfusion therapy, oncology, pediatrics, total parenteral nutrition, and quality assurance. In addition, management, research, education, and risk management are also covered as they relate to infusion therapy.
Although all of the chapters have been organized systematically, beginning with introductory material before moving into physiological considerations and intravenous agents, each chapter has been written to stand alone, so that an experienced practitioner may simply refer to individual chapters for a succinct reference.
