"This concise resource delivers the specific knowledge nurses need in their daily practice to care for trauma patients safely and effectively. Fast Facts for Trauma Nursing provides a detailed overview of key trauma-related care issues while distilling critical elements of emergency and trauma care after resuscitation. Organized in a systems-based format, the book stresses evidence-based treatments and nursing interventions for best practice and patient care. The resource--written by experienced trauma nurse clinicians--focuses on the approach to and care of the trauma patient from arrival to the hospital through discharge. Included is a review of mechanism of injury issues and traumatic injuries, as well as the key elements of primary, secondary, and tertiary surveys. This new resource highlights the unique physiological and psychological needs of the trauma patient while considering how social determinants of health can bear on trauma in individuals. It also focuses on the maintenance of spinal precautions, preventing secondary brain injuries, and monitoring patients for complications of trauma, including acute kidney injury, adult respiratory distress syndrome, compartment syndrome and rhabdomyolysis.. With its clear narrative and easy-to-access design and format, this new book will appeal to all levels of nurses who care for trauma patients along with those studying for specialized trauma certification exams."
