Acute congestive heart failure: preventing complications

R Dahlen, S L Roberts

    Dimensions of Critical Care Nursing : DCCN
    |September 1, 1996
    PubMed
    Summary

    Critical care nurses can prevent complications in patients with congestive heart failure (CHF) by understanding myocardial performance and implementing key nursing interventions within a multidisciplinary team. This approach improves patient outcomes and hospital economics.
