This solid resource provides a comprehensive examination of neonatal nursing management from a physiologic and pathophysiologic approach. It features a complete physiologic and embryonic foundation for each neonatal system, as well as coverage of associated risk factors, genetics, critical periods of development, nutrition, and parenting. Key Features A collaborative approach encompassing medical, surgical, and psychosocial care is emphasized. The most up-to-date research findings demonstrate the rationales for practice strategies and clinical decision making. Appropriate diagnostic tests and their interpretation are discussed in each system chapter. The family in the continuum of care is emphasized - including the changing family unit and the sibling's adaptation to a new family member. In depth discussions of each organ system include assessment and management strategies, complications, and new technologies.
