Violence, Injury and Trauma : An Issue of Critical Care Nursing Clinics

With staggering figures like almost 800,000 children abused each year, and two million spouses injured every year in domestic violence incidents, this topic is essential material for discussion for critical care nurses.

The guest editors have chosen to update some topics done in the 1997 issue, such as Firearm Violence in America, Care of the Pregnant Trauma Patient, and Child Maltreatment, while adding various new topics like Shaken Baby Syndrome, and Fire and Smoke Injuries.
