Description
The Oxford Handbook of Diabetes Nursing has been fully reviewed and updated for its second edition. This practical pocket-sized guide serves as an update to support knowledge for contemporaneous, holistic and gold standards of care in diabetes. Written by experienced diabetes practitioners, the focus is on diabetes care across all settings to include primary, community, and inpatient diabetes care. There is a wealth of evidenced based, practical guidance delivered in the easy-to-read, quick reference Oxford Handbook format. New chapters include; psychological issues in people living with diabetes, female health in diabetes, the perioperative management of diabetes, and technology for insulin delivery and glucose monitoring. Other chapters cover areas which have developed over more recent years such as type 2 diabetes prevention, the remission of type 2 diabetes, cardio-renal protection, frailty assessment, and multiple long-term conditions, with a comprehensive section on insulin, to include advice on insulin types, devices, and best practice technique. Many chapters include associated case studies to support enhanced learning. Throughout the handbook there is a focus on potential health inequalities, the importance of individualised care, and how underserved communities can best be supported. As we look to effective diabetes care delivery by the whole multi-disciplinary team the handbook continues to be a valuable resource providing high standards of education, guidance, and signposting for all healthcare professionals.
