tailieunhanh - Clinical Genetics in Nursing Practice Third Edition

I wrote the first edition of this book more than 20 years ago, and the discoveries in genetics since then have been phenomenal. The new knowledge and applications of human genetics to health and to society have made it even more necessary that nurses "think genetically" in their practice and, indeed in their lives. Genetic factors can be responsible in some way for both direct and indirect disease causation; for variation that determines predisposition, susceptibility, and resistance to disease and also for response to therapeutic management. Genetic disorders can be manifested initially at any period of the life cycle | Clinical Felissa R. Lashley Clinical Genetics in Nursing Practice Third Edition Felissa R.
