Abstract

Developing guidelines for the care of complicated patients is not an easy task. This article describes how a group of critical care nurses produced guidelines for the nursing care of patients undergoing percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA). Guidelines are important in guiding nursing actions without the legal restrictions implicit in using standards.
