Material Detail

'This application allows novice nurses and nursing students to search for over 340 common diseases and disorders, separated by body system. Once the disease/ disorder is selected, the user will be able to have useful information right at their fingertips, including a nursing process approach to managing client care. There are simple explanations of what each of the diseases/ disorders are and common assessment findings associated with them. In addition, useful information is included that incorporates priority assessments needed for clients with the selected disease/ disorder. Potential applicable Nursing Diagnoses with related factors and client goals are also incorporated. Appropriate interventions are outlined to help guide client care and encourage a comprehensive approach to managing client care. These can be especially useful when studying for NCLEX examinations, developing client-centered care plans, and in acute care medical-surgical settings. Finally, the nursing process would not be complete without an evaluation. Complications are outlined for each disease/ disorder to help student nurses and novice nurses start to build upon foundations presented through core nursing education classes. In summary, this application is a reference for nurses and nursing students that utilizes the Nursing Process (ADPIE) for common medical surgical diseases/ disorders in the following ways: •Gives a brief, simple description of over 340 common medical-surgical diseases and disorders. • Outlines common assessment findings and potential priority assessments to include in client care. • Incorporates potential Nursing Diagnoses with related factors for each disease/ disorder. • Assists with delineating a plan by stating client-centered goals. • Lists appropriate nursing interventions to implement in a client plan of care for each disease/ disorder. •States potential complications for the nurse to consistently evaluate and assess for, associated with each disease/ disorder. •A great resource for clinical application and NCLEX review.'
