Emergency & Critical Care Pocket Guide » (6th Edition)

The most popular pocket reference in emergency nursing is now available in a completely updated 6th edition. The Emergency & Critical Care Pocket Guide has been an essential resource for physicians, paramedics and nurses for over a decade. It consolidates the critical information found in a desk reference into a convenient 3" x 5" pocket-size format that is handy enough to take with you anywhere.

The new 6th edition features comprehensive content updates in every section with the latest information about infectious diseases, namely influenza, MRSA, C-diff and Norovirus; and drugs, including dosages for Fentanyl, Lorazepam (Ativan) and Midazolam, and new drip charts added to the emergency drug section. This edition also incorporates new illustrations and charts for essentials such as ECG Components and the Quick Rate Calculator, to maximize access to detailed information.
