Book Description

May 28, 1993 0521423279 978-0521423274 1
The circulatory system is the focus of the first volume in the series. This volume reviews essential topics concerned with fetal and neonatal cardiovascular function. The early chapters provide an overview of the physiological mechanisms that control the circulation in both the fetus and the neonate and the transitional processes that take place at birth. The book then considers pathophysiological conditions and related clinical issues. Care and management of the newborn is discussed, along with appropriate approaches to treatment and the new technologies currently available for monitoring cardiovascular parameters in the fetus and the neonate.

Editorial Reviews

Review

"Overall, this book meets the intended goals that the series organizers proposed. Although it is multi-authored, the writing is uniformly good. It should be useful to a variety of readers, including medical students interested in neonatal medicine; residents in reproductive medicine, pediatrics and neonatology; basic scientists conducting research in these fields; and practitioners who desire an updating review. For anyone in the aforementioned categories, this is highly recommended reading." Colin M. Bloor, Quarterly Review of Biology

Book Description

Prepared by an international team of scientists and clinicians, this is an authoritative review of the cardiovascular system in the perinatal period, from both the clinical and the scientific perspectives.
