Description
This comprehensive reference written by acknowledged experts offers practical, authoritative information on the clinical management of obstetrical problems. Arranged in five sections, it covers aspects of normal pregnancy, labor and delivery; antepartum and intrapartum evaluation of the fetus, including prenatal diagnosis of genetic problems; problems specific to pregnancy and labor, such as induction of labor, premature labor, and abnormal presentation; maternal illnesses in pregnancy; and techniques of operative obstetrics. It includes a discussion of medical-legal considerations written by specialists in malpractice litigation, and identifies areas of consensus and controversy in all facets of the field. The book features topics not usually covered in obstetrics textbooks, such as malignancy in pregnancy, management of shoulder dystocia, and invasive cardiovascular monitoring. Also included is a chapter on ultrasonography, with tables provided. There are numerous illustrations to clarify techniques and operative procedures.
