    • English
    With more than 100 evidence-based, customizable care plans, Swearingen’s All-in-One Nursing Care Planning Resource: Medical-Surgical, Pediatric, Maternity, and Psychiatric-Mental Health is an easy-to-use, curriculum-wide reference to guide the development of patient-centered nursing care plans. The only nursing care planning reference book that covers all four core clinical areas, it features care plans for medical-surgical, maternity/OB, pediatrics, and psychiatric‒mental health to help you learn to care for patients in any setting. The interprofessional patient problems focus teaches you how to communicate patient problems using the standard terminology of the health professions rather than in nursing-specific language. Safety icons highlight assessments and interventions that focus on safety measures supported by national patient safety standards and goals. Care plans have been updated throughout to reflect the latest evidence-based treatment guidelines and protocols. Care plan components are now labeled as appropriate with the six cognitive skills identified in the National Council of State Boards of Nursing (NCSBN) Clinical Judgment Measurement Model (CJMM) to help you identify, develop, and implement the clinical judgment skills needed for success on the Next-Generation NCLEX® Exam (NGN) and in clinical practice. With new care plans on Infection, Breastfeeding, and Delirium, a clear, focused approach, an easy-to-use format, and straightforward rationales, this one book will meet your care planning needs throughout your entire nursing program and into clinical practice!

  • Nanochemistry

    Chemistry of Nanoparticle Formation and Interactions
    • 1st Edition
    • Anna Klinkova + 1 more
    • English
    Nanochemistry: Chemistry of Nanoparticle Formation and Interactions provides an overview of the chemistry aspects of nanoparticle science, including nanoparticle synthesis, chemical properties, stability, applications and self-assembly behavior. The critical concepts discussed in this book represent the necessary toolbox for enabling the rational design of nanoparticle-based materials for target applications. After an introduction to standard analytical techniques used for nanoparticle characterization, four separate chapters cover inorganic, organic, polymer nanoparticles, and carbon nanostructures to highlight the synthetic protocols, structural intricacies, and chemical properties specific to each of these material classes. Finally, physicochemical phenomena governing self-assembly behavior of nanoparticles are also discussed in detail separately. This book is intended for senior undergraduate, graduate and postgraduate students and research scientists in nanoscience and nanotechnology, material science, chemistry, physics, biomedical sciences and relevant engineering fields that want to develop a deeper understanding of the governing chemical principles on the nanoscale.

  • Hierarchical Modeling of Energy Systems

    • 1st Edition
    • Nikolai I. Voropai + 1 more
    • English
    Hierarchical Modeling of Energy Systems presents a detailed methodology for hierarchical modeling of large-scale complex systems with a focus on energy systems and their expansion planning and control. General methodological principles of hierarchical modeling are analyzed, and based on this analysis, a generalized technology for the hierarchical approach is presented. The mathematical foundations of decomposition and bi-level programming, as well as the possibility of using information technologies are also considered. The theoretical propositions are demonstrated by numerous hierarchical modeling examples aimed at planning the development of the energy sector and expansion of energy systems, analyzing, and optimizing these systems, and controlling their operation. In addition, codes and sample simulations are included throughout. This is an invaluable guide for researchers, engineers, and other specialists involved in the development, control and management of energy systems, while the summary of fundamental principles and concepts in energy modeling makes this an accessible learning tool for graduate students on any course involving energy systems or energy modeling.
