Book Description

ISBN-10: 0387004432 | ISBN-13: 978-0387004433 | Publication Date: January 9, 2004 | Edition: 03

This is the 3rd edition of a classic text which still represents the only multi-disciplinary approach to the evaluation and management of a high-risk pregnancy. Since most chapters are written by a 2-author team (an anesthesiologist and an obstetrician or fetologist), information will be efficiently formated, practical, and complete. Coverage will include causes of the health risk, pathophysiology, obstetric treatment written by an obstetrician, and anesthetic management written by an obstetric anesthesiologist. Chapters will include the latest procedures and most advanced technology. They will cover the parameters used to observe fetal well-being and deal with abnormal findings, regardless of the stage of development. Topics will extend through the delivery and post delivery periods.

Editorial Reviews

Review

From the reviews of the third edition:

"This book vividly illustrates the need for partnership between obstetricians and anaesthetists in delivering care to high-risk women in labour. It is a good attempt at encouraging a multidisciplinary approach on the labour ward and serves as an informative source for both obstetricians and anaesthetists. It is a well-written book in its third edition. … I would recommend this book as part of a library collection and I think it would be a useful textbook for obstetric anaesthetists, maternal and fetal medicine specialists … ." (Manjiri M Khare, The Obstetrician & Gynaecologist, Vol. 8 (1), 2006)
