The Veterinary Nursing Guide to Monitoring Critical Patients: The Rule of 20 examines each parameter in the Rule of 20, a checklist of 20 parameters that should be monitored daily in critical veterinary patients. The book explains what is being monitored and why, with parameters organized in a logical order for creating nursing plans. It emphasizes how each rule affects the others and how to use that knowledge to anticipate patient needs. Each chapter focuses on a single parameter and its practical application and includes a summary of nursing considerations. The book also features examples to illustrate the Rule of 20 fundamentals.
