| Summary, etc. | Lehne's Pharmacology for Nursing Care is a perennial favorite among both students and faculty-in fact, no other nursing pharmacology text has drawn such overwhelmingly positive feedback from students. Its hallmark features include a clear and engaging writing style, use of the drug prototype approach with a strong emphasis on understanding over memorization, and unmatched clinical precision and currency - even the index is meticulously prepared by Rich Lehne himself. The author's one-of-a-kind narrative voice enables him to explain complex material in a way that makes it easy and enjoyable to learn. Lehne was the first nursing pharmacology text to use large and small print to distinguish the "need-to-know" from the "nice-to-know" content. The bulleted, end-of-chapter nursing implications help students apply the pharmacology content after they have learned it thoroughly.<br/>Uses a prototype drug approach that places a strong emphasis on understanding over memorization - equipping students with the knowledge to learn not only about related drugs currently on the market, but also about those drugs that will be released once the student begins practice.<br/>Summaries of Major Nursing Implications at the end of each chapter provide an in-depth look at assessment, implementation, and ongoing evaluations.<br/>Utilizes large print for essential information and small print for "nice-to-know" information to help both faculty and students focus their limited classroom and study time on understanding the essentials.<br/>Concise drug summary tables present detailed information on individual drugs, including class, generic and trade names, dosages, routes, and indications.<br/>Key Points at the end of each chapter summarize content in a bulleted format to help students review important concepts.<br/>Prototype drug discussions employ a clear and consistent format with separate headings for Mechanism of Action; Pharmacologic Effects; Pharmacokinetics; Therapeutic Uses; Adverse Effects; Drug Interactions; and Preparations, Dosage, and Administration.<br/>An attractive full-color design adds visual interest, highlights key information, and facilitates student learning.<br/>Drugs for Multiple Sclerosis and Drugs for Hemophilia chapters.<br/>Drugs for Erectile Dysfunction and Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia chapter covers newsworthy drugs such as Viagra and Levitra.<br/>Special Interest Topics boxes on current issues in pharmacology, such as Medication-Overuse Headache: Too Much of a Good Thing and Face Time with Botox.<br/>Adult Immunization appendix summarizes the latest information on immunizations.<br/>Numerous new illustrations show drug mechanisms and effects, and depict topics such as histologic changes in Alzheimer's disease and the movement of drugs following GI absorption. |
