Physical Examination Procedures for Advanced Nurses and Independent Prescribers

Physical Examination Procedures for Advanced Nurses and Independent Prescribers: Evidence and Rationale
Publisher: Oxford University Press 2010 PDF 139 pages ISBN: 0340967587 8.1Mb

A practical overview of the skills and rationale for physical examination, this book is a useful reference for student practitioners in nursing and other non-medical prescribers and is an essential revision aid in the build up to clinical exams.

This book provides a quick reference guide to the procedures and skills needed to perform physical examinations of adults, backed up with evidence and clinical guidelines enabling the reader to justify the way they perform each physical examination. A step-by-step checklist for each body system is presented alongside a rationale to aid understanding and reinforce learning, and is followed by case studies to put the information into context. Further sections include integrated examinations, clinical signs and common pathological conditions for each system, self-assessment tests, and appendices containing useful guidelines and reference tables.

This is an essential guide for students on specialist and advanced nurse practitioner courses, paramedics, and supplementary and independent prescribers, including nurses, pharmacists, physiotherapists, podiatrists, and radiographers.

Pharmaceutical Bioassays

Pharmaceutical Bioassays

The definitive compendium of bioassay procedures and applications
A virtual encyclopedia of key bioassay protocols, this up-to-date, essential resource reviews the methods and applications of bioassays that quantify drug activity and evaluate the validity of pharmacological models.

Demonstrating the specific ways in which various pharmaceutical bioassays interpret the activity of drug molecules, the book covers the evaluation and screening of drug compounds in a wide spectrum of therapeutic categories.

Throughout, the authors use various models to link experimental observations with findings that clarify the effect of drug compounds on cellular biology and measure the pharmacological activity of chemical substances. This provides an important technological platform for successful drug research and clinical therapy, making Pharmaceutical Bioassays an ideal sourcebook for pharmacologists, pharmaceutical and medical researchers, analytical chemists, toxicologists, and students.

Just as a fundamental knowledge of pharmaceutical bioassays is vital to understanding how bioactive agents and new drugs are defined, discovered, and developed, so too is this indispensable reference, which:

•Offers a complete reference on pharmaceutical bioassays and their specific applications in the assessment of therapies for cancer, Alzheimer's, diabetes, epilepsy, inflammation, antimalarials, pharmacogenomics, and other major therapeutic areas

•Covers bioassays that measure toxicity, including those for chemical toxicity and hepatoxicity—a particularly significant consideration in the development of safe and tolerable medications

•Highlights clinically relevant methods, ideas, and techniques to support any pharmaceutical researcher

•Suggests guidelines and systems to enhance communication between pharmacologists, chemists, and biologists

•Provides an informative analysis of pharmaceutical bioassay technologies and lab applications
