Synopsis

All the fundamentals are here - from nursing care during pregnancy, birth and the postpartum period, to understanding the growth and development of the child and family, to the nursing care of children. The second edition of this combined textbook shows how the whole family is affected by health-related events - like the birth of a child - to expand students' awareness beyond the clinical situation. The text: stresses important new topics such as the family experience in maternity/child health, cultural diversity, and communication; offers a structure organized by body systems - from simple to complex; features a revised and expanded maternity section, including nursing care of women with complications during pregnancy, haemorrhage, infection, subinvolution of uterus, and disorders of mood; contains 16 full-colour plates that illustrate the signs of communicable diseases; explores the role of the nurse in reproductive health including contraception, infertility, toxic shock, and menopause; and provides aids such as key points, multiple choice questions and nursing briefs.
