Features: With the development of theory and practice in the field of nursing, the patient-centered nursing model has been basically established. This nursing model emphasizes a holistic understanding of the patient, shifting the focus of nursing work from purely disease-based care to comprehensive care that addresses the patient's disease, psychological, and social needs. In terms of nursing methods, traditional functional nursing is being broken down, and nursing processes are being applied to comprehensively collect patient data, develop corresponding nursing plans, and provide nursing health education to implement holistic physical and mental care. This textbook is structured under the educational goal of cultivating 21st-century intermediate nursing talents who can basically meet the needs of holistic nursing. It reconstructs the intellectual structure of internal medicine nursing, organizes course content as much as possible according to the requirements of nursing processes, and better adapts to the needs of professional training. The book, excluding the introduction, is divided into three parts: General Principles of Internal Medicine Nursing, Specific Topics of Internal Medicine Nursing, and Infectious Disease Nursing, with a total of 24 chapters. This textbook references and draws on the experience of the third edition of "Internal Medicine Nursing" for nursing majors in secondary health schools across the country. It divides the nursing care for internal medicine diseases into two main parts: "Disease Overview" and "Nursing." The "Disease Overview" section provides a concise introduction to the basic concepts, pathogenesis, clinical characteristics, treatment principles, and prognosis/prevention of internal medicine diseases. The "Nursing" section integrates the "nursing process" as organically as possible.
