With a strong emphasis on fetology and fetal intervention, this
book discusses fetal development, fetal diagnosis, assessing
fetal well-being, and medical and surgical therapy for the
fetus. Moving into neonatology, it covers maternal factors
influencing neonatal outcome, management of high-risk pregnancy,
and neonatal resuscitation. Discussions are organized by organ
system, diagnosis, treatment, management, and critical care
techniques for the critically ill infant. Ethical considerations
in intensive care are also discussed.
