Interpreting the Data

Abnormal laboratory values are usually easy to predict. For example, electrolytes are ingested in the diet and excreted in the urine. If your patient isn't eating or has changes in urine output it is safe to assume that her electrolytes will be abnormal.

"Interpreting the Data" is designed to help you find these clues, and will help you:
• Confidently interpret the CBC, electrolytes, and urinalysis
• Correlate changes in labs with patient condition
• Recognize assessment clues that alert you to abnormal labs

With an increased understanding of common lab tests, you will be able to rapidly gain the information you need, and accurately put it to use in choosing the best assessments and treatments.

"Interpreting the Data" will help you make the most sense out of your diagnostic test quickly and accurately. This course is taught by David W. Woodruff, MSN, RN, CNS, CCRN, a nationally-known nursing expert and teacher. David will teach you how to use the tips and shortcuts he uses to quickly assess what altered labs mean to your patient.

"Interpreting the Data" includes:
• Rapid assessment of labs
• Tips for practical use
• 60-minute audio CD
• Comprehensive handbook

Refine your lab data assessment skills now, to provide better care and decrease complications in all of your patients!
