Opis

Master the effective evaluation, analysis and management of placental-fetal growth restriction PFGR], reducing the risk of perinatal mortality and morbidity in patients worldwide. Extensively researched by international experts, this manual provides practitioners with a detailed, hands-on approach to the practical 'pearls' for direct patient management. This authoritative volume advises on matters such as the correct evaluation and management of high-risk patients in danger of PFGR through to delivery. Extensive and wide-ranging, this book is an invaluable companion to the developing research interest and clinical applications in PFGR, including developmental outcomes in early childhood. Featuring a critical evaluation of a variety of abnormal conditions, such as fetal hypoxia, which are clearly displayed through extensive illustrations. This essential toolkit ensures that practitioners of all levels can effectively limit the risk of mortality and morbidity, and reach the correct diagnosis, first-time.

Recenzje

'It is logically organised in seven sections and 28 chapters, which take the reader through basic principles, screening for the problem through to management, and postnatal effects. There is a chapter dedicated to currently available guidelines and a whole section (five chapters) dedicated to each aspect of fetal physiology … Clear illustrations combined with ultrasound images and management algorithms are provided as appropriate. One of the main strengths of the book is its readability, making it accessible to a wide audience, from trainees to fetal medicine specialists, and as such useful for anyone currently delivering antenatal care.' Alina Vais, The Obstetrician & Gynaecologist
