Improve your understanding of nursing pharmacology with Pharmacology Online, 9th Edition. Corresponding to Pharmacology: A Patient-Centered Nursing Process Approach, 9th Edition, this online course features a collection of interactive, self-paced learning modules that make it easier to learn everything from basic principles to dosage calculation, drug administration, and more — all within context of the nursing process. These self-study modules feature true-to-life case studies, videos, animations, NCLEX® Examination–style quizzes, and more to help you understand how drugs work and how to administer them safely in the clinical setting.
-
- 21 Self-study modules provide a thorough review of the basic principles of pharmacology, drug dosage calculations, and several major drug content areas using a combination of media: text, animations, illustrations, integrated learning activities, and dynamic hyperlinks.
- Interactive learning activities provide review of critical drug content in game-like activity format.
- Practice quizzes for the NCLEX Examination feature approximately 500 self-scoring questions with rationales.
- Case studies with corresponding quizzes use true-to-life clinical scenarios to promote "learning by doing" in the safety of a virtual clinical setting.
- Discussion questions develop your knowledge of clinical practice by asking you to apply your learning to scenarios like those you will encounter in practice.
- Animations and videos foster easier learning of difficult pharmacology topics.
- Roadside Assistance video clips incorporated into modules use humor and analogy to bring difficult content to life.
- Audio glossary presents a definition and an audio pronunciation for more than 1,400 terms and drug names.
