Opis

Written by an international team of practitioners, this book offers an
overview of the most important and common clinical issues in obstetrics and
gynecology, including reproductive endocrinology, gynecologic oncology, and
sexuality. It provides readers with current information on evidence-based
approaches to the management of normal pregnancy, labor and birth, as well as
the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of high-risk pregnancy, infertility,
and acute and chronic diseases in women of all ages. For each condition the
authors give a clear definition, discuss its epidemiology, etiology and
pathophysiology, and present the most recent protocols for its detection,
screening, and clinical management.

Features:

• Clearly and consistently organized chapters for
  optimal comprehension of the material

• A section dedicated to the legal and ethical issues
  related to reproductive health

• More than 200 illustrations, many in full color,
  demonstrating critical data and concepts

• A summary of key points at the end of most chapters
  and "Best Evidence" boxes that focus on significant clinical trials

• Self-test questions and answers on an accompanying
  website

A comprehensive introduction to the field, Obstetrics and Gynecology: The Essentials of Clinical Care is an excellent textbook and reference for medical students on clinical
rotation in obstetrics/gynecology, and for residents in the specialty. Nurses,
midwives, and physician assistants will also benefit from its wealth of information.
