内容説明
Preterm labour is a common problem for obstetricians, with up to 10% of pregnancies ending in premature delivery, with associated health risks to the neonate. Conventional thinking is that this is a little understood and difficult to treat area, but recent research has recognised vaginal infection as a cause. This book covers the latest findings in the field and describes simple measures to reduce the risk of preterm labour. For the practising obstetrician, confused by the recent explosion of research, the text provides an authoritative review of current understanding of aetiology and guidance on management options. Features: * Expert review in confusing area * Review of current literature * Describes simple measures to reduce incidence of preterm labour * Recommendations for management by those who are changing their clinical practice * Reflects variations in clinical practice
