Overview

Thoroughly revised to reflect the content presented in Brunner & Suddarth’s Textbook of Medical-Surgical Nursing, 15th Edition, this updated Study Guide reinforces essential concepts and challenges students to practice applying what they’ve learned. Engaging review questions, case-based questions, and NCLEX®-style questions — all with answers in the back of the book — assess students’ understanding of textbook material and highlight areas of weakness for further study. Ideal for diverse learning styles and settings, this easy-to-use study resource is the key to greater success in class, on exams, and in clinical practice for every student.
