Dosage calculations and basic math for nurses demystified

Abstract

Calculating the correct dose to administer to the patient is challenging unless you follow a proven approach that is used in Dosage Calculations Demystified. Topics are presented in an order in which many nurses and nursing students like to learn them—starting with the basics and then gradually moving on to techniques used in our nation’s leading medical facilities everyday to ensure patients receive the proper dose of medication. Each chapter follows a time-tested formula that first explains techniques in an easy-to-read style and then shows how you can use it in the real-world healthcare environment. You can then test your knowledge at the end of each chapter to be sure that you have mastered nurse management skills. There is little room for you to go adrift
