Listing diseases and disorders alphabetically, and the tests commonly used to diagnose them, this text also details over 850 laboratory and diagnostic tests.
This resource covers more tests than any other reference of its kind--over 850 in all--including 60 that are new to this edition. Part One alphabetically lists diseases, conditions, and symptoms--itemizing the tests used to confirm or rule out a given diagnosis and suggesting additional possible diagnoses. Part Two alphabetically lists laboratory and diagnostic tests as well as toxic substances, and provides a wealth of guidance on what steps to take for each listing. Review of Last Edition: "An excellent resource...Informative and useful." --Oncology Nursing Forum Features: * Professional Considerations for each test detail whether patient consent is required - how the patient is prepared - how the test is performed - what the results mean - what post-procedure care is necessary - what drugs affect laboratory values or interfere with testing methods - what factors influence the accuracy of test results - what the laboratory values are throughout the lifespan - and more. Cross-referencing speeds information-finding for tests known by more than one name. * Coverage of drugs specifies panic values for overdose as well as signs/symptoms and treatment.
Readers can easily identify a given frug, know its therapeutic and toxic levels, and respond effectively in case of toxicity. * Includes legal considerations for specimen handling. * Now offers helpful instructions for client and family teaching - includes new cardiac diagnostic tests - highlights overdose levels, signs, and symptoms that are below the normative and panic values - and presents risks associated with procedures or tests that require a patient's consent. * Presents the minimum volumes for the blood samples required in certain tests, and states whether a given substance can be dialyzed out of the bloodstream and whether blood specimens can be drawn during hemodialysis.
