Opis

In the last decade there has been expansion in the clinical interaction between hematologists and obstetricians, resulting in a need to understand and manage the clinical manifestations of hemato-obstetric science. This book will assist in the diagnosis and treatment of these conditions and provide the reader with a user-friendly, authoritative source of information, incorporating the best practice contained within internationally accepted guidelines. To assist the reader, chapters have a similar format, including tables summarizing the key points in diagnosis and management. There are also sections on the impact of new blood component therapies, patient consent, and screening for genetic disorders.
