Nursing mnemonics provide concise summaries of important clinical information. The document presents three mnemonics: DAD BOND CLASH summarizes the medical management of heart failure in 3 letters; AVPU measures a patient's level of consciousness on a 4-point scale; and SAMPLE is used to obtain a patient's health history by assessing Symptoms, Allergies, Medications, Past medical history, Last oral intake, and Events leading to illness or injury. Mnemonics help nurses accurately and quickly assess patients in different conditions and situations by systematizing important clinical steps and processes.
