Reseña del editor:

Signs and symptoms of an imbalance can be sneaky, stealthful, and sly. But this one-of-a-kind reference from the clinical experts -- and super simplifiers -- at Springhouse makes mastering this essential topic a joy. Contents include balancing basics: balancing fluids, electrolytes, and acids and bases; fluid and electrolyte imbalances: when fluids, sodium, potassium, magnesium, calcium, phosphorus, chloride, or acids and bases tip the balance; disorders that cause imbalances: congestive heart failure, respiratory failure, excessive GI fluid loss, renal failure, and burns; and treating imbalances: I.V. fluid replacement, total parenteral nutrition, and blood products.
