The text continues to provide a comprehensive examination of neonatal care from a physiologic and pathophysiologic approach, with a major emphasis on nursing management at the bedside and advanced practice level. The complete physiologic and embroyologic foundation of each neonatal body system is presented, along with evidence-based interventions to assist the student in understanding the 'why' behind what is seen in the clinical area. The thread of integrative management pervades the text, which also examines the relevance of various diagnostic tests. The book presents extensive research findings that provide evidence to support practice strategies and rationales for sound clinical decision-making. Included are such foundational topics as risk factors, genetics, physiologically critical periods of development, nutrition, and parenting as well as topics of recent interest such as iatrogenic complications, neonatal pain, use of computers or other technology in neonatal care, and neonatal AIDS. Case studies lead the reader through the identification, diagnosis, treatment, and evaluation of treatment of common and rare neonatal conditions. Also included are practice protocol guides, a discussion guide, video clips of chapter contributors, and periodic clinical updates.
