Marwa Al Barmawi: Critical care nurses' pain management in Jordan, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

It is well-documented in literature that pain management in critical care is still below the expected levels leaving patients to experience pain at variable levels in many cases. Critical Care Nurses' pain management practices are influenced by their knowledge, attitudes and previous experience. Exploring these aspects is crucial to improve such practices, especially when nurses' decisions are usually the outcome of what they know, perceive and believe. The book at hands explains how Jordanian critical care nurses manage pain among patients. It is expected that common issues are found among nurses from other areas and regions around the world. Therefore, addressing recommendations highlighted in this book might improve pain management and bring the concept of pain-free stay in the critical care units to a better level.
