The information nurses need...when, where, and how they need it!

Nursing-focused and easy-to-read, this manual delivers all the information you need to understand how tests work, interpret their results, and provide quality patient care-pre-test, intra-test, and post-test.

Plus, a Body Systems Appendix includes a list of common laboratory and diagnostic tests for each body system as well as nutrition-related lab tests.
