Test Bank for Davis Advantage for Medical-Surgical Nursing: Making Connections to Practice

**Medical-Surgical Nursing** helps students make the connections between concepts and patient care to ensure they understand the important relationships between the pathophysiology, clinical presentation, and management of the diseases and disorders they are most likely to encounter in practice. A concise and consistent organization focuses on the “need-to-know” to better prepare students for practice, while also promoting critical thinking and clinical judgment.

**LEARN—Personalized Learning**

The foundation of the text, the Personalized Learning approach helps students make connections to must-know content. Learning activities assess comprehension of key topics from the text and reinforce learning through clear explanations, illustrations, and opportunities to practice applying knowledge.

**APPLY—Clinical Judgment**

Clinical Judgment assignments challenge students to think critically and make informed decisions to achieve the best patient outcomes. Each case study presents real-life, complex clinical situations that mimic the new Next Gen NCLEX® format and align with the NCSBN Clinical Judgment Measurement Model, helping students build the clinical judgment skills needed to become practice-ready nurses and prepare for the Next Gen NCLEX® with confidence.

**ASSESS—Quizzing**

Quizzing assignments use NCLEX®-style questions for assessment and remediation. Questions cover the same topics and concepts as the textbook to assess students’ comprehension, providing the additional practice needed to test knowledge, master course content, and perform well on course and board exams. Brand-new, stand-alone Bowtie and Trend questions provide additional practice answering these new individual item types.
