Master dosage safety with Clinical Nursing Calculations,3rd Ed.-a hands-on guide using real case studies,the CASE method & NCLEX-style questions to build confidence & clinical accuracy.

Accurate dosage calculation is essential for all nurses to master. It is crucial to equip students with the right tools to build a strong foundation & establish lifelong confidence in calculation and maintaining patient safety. The updated Clinical Nursing Calculations, 3rd Ed. empowers students with the confidence and skills to safely calculate the right medication dosage to their patients. Drawing from their extensive experience across the continuum of care, the authors employ the CASE approach (Convert, Approximate, Solve, Evaluate) for performing dosage calculations while presenting side-by-side comparisons of all three methods of calculation. This systematic step-by-step approach accounts for students' different learning styles, whether they prefer to utilize the Ratio-Proportion, Formula Method, or Dimensional Analysis method of calculation.

The updated 3rd Ed. features expanded content on nutrition & insulin pen calculations, a focus on legal implications of medication administration, exercises targeting safe practice with high-alert medications, examples given in eMar and electronic health record format & new videos that demonstrate clinical calculation skills. Realistic dosages, practical clinical application, chapter case studies, a step-by-step approach & interactive learning tools make Clinical Nursing Calculations, 3rd Ed. a perfect resource for all pre-licensure nursing students.
