Hansen, A.: MANUAL OF NEONATAL SURGICAL INTENSIVE CARE

 January 2003; 60,00 €; 384 Pag.

Manual of Neonatal Surgical Intensive Care provides practical management recommendations for the pre- and post-operative care of infants with surgical conditions.  
 
The book focuses on the non-operative care of the infant with a surgical condition. This interdisciplinary care requires knowledge that has accumulated over the years, but much of which is not recorded.  
 
As appropriate, chapters cover the embryology, incidence, prenatal diagnosis (treatment), postnatal presentation, postnatal diagnosis, differential diagnosis, pre-operative management, implications for anesthesia, surgical management, post-operative management, and complications/outcomes.  

 

Features
  • Covers the difficult area of non-surgical management of surgical conditions
  • Portable size makes this text ideal as an immediate reference source
