Overview

The lab work you have been patiently waiting for comes back as "normal"… yet you know something just isn't right!

What do you do now?

Look beyond the numbers and finally understand what the values mean. Master lab interpretation with this cutting–edge online video course that provides in–depth knowledge of the full spectrum of lab tests used today. You'll gain a true integrative understanding of this key area of nursing, to proactively plan the course of care and optimize your patient outcomes.

This inclusive online course is broken into six advanced sessions to give you step–by–step instruction on lab tests including why they were ordered, the pathophysiology behind abnormal values, and an understanding of what types of symptoms your patient will show as the values either deteriorate or improve.
