This guide offers a visual, interactive approach that clearly and engagingly explains topics, such as a condition's at risk population, pathogenesis, causes, modifiable and nonmodifiable risk factors, clinical manifestations, prognosis, and treatment modalities, as well as the nurse's responsibilities to educate the patient. The first section of the book presents content in an illustrated multi-modal approach that explains key concepts and reviews topics with a range of engaging learning activities. The last section contains 150 NCLEX review questions with answers and rationales for both correct and incorrect answers.
