Description and Table of Contents
Description
The aim of this series is to provide a common ground between obstetricians and paediatricians, and to describe current practice in a way that is useful and relevant to both groups. Individual volumes in the series represent the collected opinions of recognized authorities on various aspects of perinatology, and this second volume deals with the risk factors associated with labour. The last few decades have seen a significant reduction in the rate of perinatal mortality in the developed world, and it is now possible for clinicians and scientists to give considerably more attention to research into the causes, detection and prevention of fetal hypoxia and birth trauma. The book presents a collection of clinical reviews on various aspects of the most common problems encountered during labour, the implications for the baby, and the causes and management of maternal trauma. All obstetricians and neonatal paediatricians will find the book a useful summary of the latest information on this important aspect of perinatal practice.
