Clinical biochemistry and laboratory haematology are key disciplines in the training of nurses and all other healthcare operators.
This book derives from the need to provide information and concepts on both the pre-analytical stage, in which the nurse is particularly involved, and the interpretation of laboratory analyses – information and concepts that can be immediately applied in clinical practice and in the training of students attending healthcare-related degree courses.
The volume brings together all the branches of clinical biochemistry, covering the various topics in a simple, schematic and up-to-date way.
Indeed, the various topics are dealt with in the form of reasoning quizzes in order to highlight the real, everyday problems the student will soon encounter in his or her professional life.
The presentation of the material in the form of reasoning quizzes will help the student prepare for exams and assimilate the fundamental concepts that he or she will need to apply in practice.
Nurses, healthcare operators, students on medical and healthcare-related degree courses.
