The Manual of Gastrointestinal Procedures is a complete procedure reference designed specifically for the GI and endoscopy nursing professional's on-the-job use. This expanded volume now incorporates the former Pediatric Supplement and other age-specific considerations, and it is also suitable for fine-tuning the endoscopy unit, training staff, introducing new techniques, educating patients and parents, or adding equipment and instruments.
Each of the 63 procedures includes a description; indications; contraindications; pre-, intra-, and post-procedure assessment; care and responsibilities; patient teaching; equipment; and potential complications. Procedures are organized into logical groupings and cross-referenced in a detailed index. Spiral bound to lie flat, this 250-page reference includes clear drawings to illustrate key points.
