Additional chapters cover on sedation, antibiotic prophylaxis, disinfection, and management of the anticoagulated patient. Endoscopy nurses, gastroenterology fellows, and gastroenterology practitioners alike can use The Johns Hopkins Manual for GI Endoscopic Nurses, Third Edition's endoscopic preparation regimens to facilitate the correct instruction of patients, reducing the likelihood of unsuccessful procedures. Dr. Kalloo also provides the definitions and indications for both common and advanced endoscopic procedures along with listings of necessary equipment. The Johns



Hopkins Manual for GI Endoscopic Nurses, Third Edition outlines nursing care before, during, and after endoscopic procedures. General guidelines for moderate sedation and equipment disinfection and sterilization are discussed, as well as special considerations for patients with specific medical conditions who are undergoing endoscopy. This concise text is easy to read and comprehend, and photographs and illustrations replace cumbersome long descriptions, making this the ideal reference for a nurse on the go"--Provided by publisher.
