Summary

The Pharmacotherapeutics for Advanced Practice Nurse Prescribers text, online case studies, and Davis Edge online quizzing work together to create an interactive learning solution that helps students master advanced pharmacology content and prepares them for their roles as Advanced Practice Nurse Prescribers.
 
LEARNING—Text
The text provides the in-depth information students need to be safe and effective prescribers, building students’ knowledge of pharmacology by first providing an overview of pharmacologic principles and then teaching them how to apply those principles to clinical practice. Updated to reflect the most current standards of practice and evidence-based guidelines, the 6th Edition continues to focus on the medications and prescribing applications for conditions most relevant to Advanced Practice Nurse Prescribers, exploring diagnostic and treatment reasoning and rational drug selection to build a strong knowledge base. It’s the only text that meets all AACN/NONPF criteria.
 
APPLYING—Case Studies
Online case studies for each body system let students exercise their clinical reasoning skills by applying what they’ve learned in the textbook to real-world scenarios. Each online case begins with a chief complaint, a brief patient history, and key assessment data. Each case is then followed by 2-3 questions that test students’ knowledge of concepts such as the appropriate prescription for the patient, recommendations for patient monitoring, and the ideal patient education. Instructors are provided with model answers for each of the questions associated with the case.
 
ASSESSING—Davis Edge
Davis Edge is an interactive, online quizzing program that provides students with additional practice to master course content and improve their scores on classroom exams. Nearly 1,000 board-style questions written for Pharmacotherapeutics for Advanced Practice Nurse Prescribers test each student’s knowledge and retention of key advanced pharmacology topics.
 
Actionable analytics enable instructors to monitor, track, and assess their students’ mastery of the content and their critical-thinking and decision-making skills. They’ll be able to easily identify the areas in which students are struggling and intervene quickly in class and on assignments to ensure that they succeed.
