The 100 medicines and the 100 procedures a nurse uses or meets almost every day, each on a single page. Part 1 covers 100 drugs in 9 classes — cardiovascular and renal, anticoagulants and blood modifiers, respiratory and allergy, endocrine and hormonal (including insulins), gastrointestinal, antimicrobials, psychiatric and neurological, analgesics, anaesthesia and critical care, and obstetric drugs — with class, indications, adult dose and route, what to check before giving, adverse effects with the nursing action, when to hold the dose and inform the doctor, what to document and patient teaching. Part 2 covers 100 nursing procedures in 11 domains — assessment and vital signs, medication administration, IV access and vascular care, infection control and wound care, perioperative skills, respiratory and airway care, GI and nutritional support, genitourinary care, fluids and blood products, mobility, safety and skin integrity, and emergency and critical care including CPR — with equipment, numbered steps with the rationale for each, complications and their prevention, and documentation. Reference tables cover drug calculations, high-alert medications and antidotes, normal values and therapeutic drug levels, abbreviations and an A–Z index. For nursing students (GNM, B.Sc. and M.Sc. Nursing), staff nurses and ICU, OT, labour room and emergency nurses. Read online or download free.
