Clinical assessment in respiratory care - Robert L Wilkins

This thoroughly revised and updated classical text teaches assessment techniques from the most basic skills for the student learning the process of patient care, to the more advanced skills for the student or practitioner involved with patients in the intensive care unit. An entirely new section teaches students and practitioners the skills necessary to record patient cases using the SOAP format (Subjective, Objective, Assessment, Plan). An extremely useful and versatile Instructors Manual and Test Bank replaces the Quick Reference Guide, allowing instructors to customise their approach to assessment.
