Beschreibung

Written by a team of leading international experts, Neonatology at a Glance provides a concise and easy-to-read overview of neonatal medicine. Each topic is clearly explained over a two-page spread, aided by numerous diagrams and illustrations. It has been extensively updated to include recent advances in perinatal medicine, genetics, respiratory support, therapeutic hypothermia, antimicrobial stewardship, and family integrated care. The book covers the wide range of problems encountered in looking after newborn babies, from normal newborn infants to the complexities of neonatal intensive care.

Neonatology at a Glance:

  • Provides up-to-date coverage of the important conditions you will encounter, including neonatal resuscitation and care of preterm infants
  • Covers challenging topics including pain, ethical issues, patient safety, evidence-based medicine, and palliative and end of life care
  • Includes details of a wide range of practical procedures, including less invasive surfactant administration, cranial ultrasound, brain monitoring and neuroimaging, and neonatal transport

Neonatology at a Glance is the perfect guide for all health professionals looking after newborn infants, including pediatric trainees, medical students, neonatal nurse practitioners and neonatal nurses, therapists, and midwives. For neonatologists, pediatricians, and neonatal lecturers, it is a valuable resource to assist with teaching.

Preface

This book provides a concise, illustrated overview of neonatal medicine. It is written for pediatric interns and residents, medical students, neonatal nurse practitioners, neonatal nurses, therapists, and midwives who care for newborn babies either on a neonatal unit or with their mothers in the normal newborn nursery (postnatal wards). For neonatologists, pediatricians, and nurse tutors it will be a useful aid to teaching.

We have divided all of neonatology into only 85 topics, with each covered in one or occasionally two to four double pages. This has been a challenging exercise; it would have been easier to write a longer book, but this format has forced us to identify the most important points and omit unnecessary details. The book has been designed to facilitate learning and to make it enjoyable. Modern education emphasizes visual impact and this is reflected in this book. The layout, photographs, and illustrations have been chosen to assist learning and make the book attractive, stimulating, and interesting. In addition, there are specific aids to learning, with boxes to highlight key points and questions and answers embedded in the text.

The book covers the wide range of common or important neonatal clinical conditions and their management. It also puts neonatology into context, with sections on its history, epidemiology, evidence‐based practice, research and consent, ethics, and global neonatology. It covers perinatal medicine, stabilizing the sick newborn, and admission to the neonatal unit, including developmental and family integrated care. The specific problems of preterm infants are covered in detail, including discharge from hospital and outcome. The medical problems encountered in neonatal care are considered, as well as challenging topics such as pain management, quality improvement, patient safety, and palliative and end of life care. Practical procedures are described, including neonatal resuscitation, neonatal transport, cranial ultrasound, brain monitoring, neuroimaging, and echocardiography for the neonatologist to inform the practicing clinician about them even if they do not perform all these procedures themselves. This new edition has allowed us to thoroughly update and revise the book. New topics have been added, such as recently developed forms of genetic testing, family integrated care, antimicrobial stewardship, and brain monitoring. A list of further reading is also included.

Whilst the book describes the salient features of intensive care, such as stabilizing the sick infant and respiratory support, it is not a manual of neonatal intensive care, of which there are many.

The book has been a collaborative project between editors and contributors from both the UK and North America. Where practices differ between the two sides of the Atlantic this has been acknowledged and described. This collaboration has been highly educational and hugely enjoyable for the editors and contributors as well as improving the book by forcing us to concentrate on the principles of practice instead of the details.

We would like to thank our many colleagues who have given their time to write, revise or review chapters and offer advice on improvements. Others have willingly contributed photographs and other images that enhance the book immensely. We are grateful to the many doctors, nurses and therapists whose positive comments about the book encouraged us to produce this fourth edition. We would also like to thank our families for allowing us to spend so much time over many years on this project.
