The Thinking, Behavior, and Clinical Perception in Emergency Medicine

Critical thinking is an essential process for safe, effective and skilled medical and nursing practice. Physician and nurse education programs must adopt positions that promote critical thinking and mobilize critical reasoning skills. Clinical decision making is the basis for expert clinical practice. The purpose of this book was to document the thought processes used by nurses in clinical decision-making situations so that the processes can guide educational practice. Medical and surgical nurses used different thought processes and showed the importance of context in making clinical decisions. The course described in this book is, therefore, an inseparable part of the studies of the sixth-year medical student, and its purpose is to complement all those subjects discussed in the courses only briefly. Therefore, the course is structured as a guidebook and includes the variety of problems facing caregivers while performing life support in adults, children and babies.
