With a focus on Chemistry and Physics content that is directly relevant to the practice of anesthesia, this text--written in an engaging, conversational style--supplies all the scientific information required for the combined Chemistry and Physics course for Nurse Anesthesia students.
NEW TO THE Third Edition: Increased focus on clinical relevance Revised and updated chapters foster ease of understanding Clinical application scenarios open each chapter A new chapter provides guidance about calculator use and a unique problem-solving method Detailed step-by-step solutions clarify answers to end-of-chapter problems Comprehensive list of all key equations with explanation of symbols KEY FEATURES: Written in an engaging, informal style for ease of understanding Focuses solely on Chemistry and Physics princi.
This clear, easy-to-read text will help even the most chemistry- and physics-phobic students to master the foundations of these sciences and competently apply them in a variety of clinical situations.
Fifteen online videos enhance teaching and learning, and abundant clinical application scenarios help reinforce scientific principles and relate them to day-to-day Anesthesia procedures.
The Third edition retains the many outstanding learning features from earlier editions, including a special focus on gases, the use of illustrations to demonstrate how scientific concepts relate directly to their clinical application in anesthesia, and end-of-chapter summaries and review questions to facilitate self-assessment.
Also included is a comprehensive list of need-to-know equations.
Clinical scenarios now begin every chapter, and a concluding chapter, new to this edition, provides detailed, step-by-step solutions to the book\'s review questions.
The addition of a Third author--a practicing Nurse anesthetist--enhances the clinical relevance of the scientific information.
Now in its Third edition, the text is updated and reorganized to facilitate a greater ease and depth of understanding.
