商品簡介
As a child branch nursing student, I particularly loved how this book covers specific scenarios in paediatrics, from the use of graphs when plotting growth charts to infant fluids, including all types of infant feeds (bolus, continuous or intravenous). There are also worked examples and practice questions for more specialist areas such as high dependency, neonates and paediatric intensive care unit."
