Abstract "This book provides the nurse with essential knowledge about the rationale supporting infusion-related interventions and anatomy and physiology relative to the vascular system. Understanding the "why" behind practice recommendations is equally important to the nurse's skill in inserting vascular access devices and administering infusions. The dimensions of the nurse's role continue to expand with an ever-growing number of new infusion drugs, new infusion devices, insertion techniques, and other strategies to reduce the risk for complications are introduced. The role of the nurse is collaborative with the health care team including nurse colleagues, infusion/vascular access teams, providers, and pharmacists to ensure patient safety and implementation of best practices"-- Provided by publisher.
