Synopsis

Following the standard "Essentials" format, this third edition has been completely updated. Neonatal medicine continues to develop with improvements in survival and therapies better directed towards the prevention and management of complications in newborn babies. The new edition reflects these developments and also features an important chapter on ethical issues that arise as the result of emerging technologies.

A propos du livre

Quatrième de couverture

Neonatology is concerned with the care of newborn babies who are at some degree of risk. This may be due to a variety of causes including prematurity, oxygen deprivation, breathing problems, infection, or birth defects. This book was originally written to provide a textbook of neonatal medicine which is concise, yet presents background information and alternative methods of treatment where appropriate. The updated second edition has the same aim, and includes basic information about the physiology and development of the newborn. It will be of value not only to medical students and paediatricians in training, but also to neonatal nurses and midwives.

Revue de presse

"The style is clear without being over dogmatic, the layout is attractive...the book can be recommended – it contains enough information for the MRCP and DCH examinations. It would also be a worthwile purchase for hospital libraries and special care baby units." British Medical Journal on the First Edition "...a useful addition to any midwife′s library." Midwifery on the First Edition
