Download or read book Perinatology written by Renato Augusto Moreira de Sá and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-11-18 with total page 1295 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents the latest evidence-based guidelines for perinatal management and is designed to help obstetricians and neonatologists minimize complications and offer patients the best possible care. Since 1960, there has been a significant increase in basic and clinical investigations on normal and pathological pregnancy in the developed world. This has provided insights into the physiopathology of pregnant women, fetuses and newborns and led to the development of new technologies, bringing about a new medical subspecialty: perinatal medicine. The book is divided into eight main sections: The first examines basic periconceptional care and discusses the ethical aspects of perinatology. The next section focuses on prenatal considerations, such as the nutritional aspects of gestation and puerperium, physical exercise during pregnancy, routine laboratory tests, prenatal care of multiple gestations and the role of the neonatologist in prenatal care. The third and fourth sections then explore fetal evaluation, and clinical intercurrences in pregnancy, respectively. The next section addresses pregnancy complications: prevention, diagnosis and management. The sixth section covers the basic aspects of congenital infections and the seventh examines labor and delivery aspects. Lastly, the final section includes chapters on neonatal assistance. Written by leading experts in obstetrics, neonatology, and perinatology, this thoroughly updated, comprehensive resource reflects the latest information in all areas, including genetics and imaging.

Download or read book The Beginnings of Perinatal Medicine written by Erich Saling and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2014-10-24 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Die Perinatale Medizin ist ein wissenschaftshistorisch gesehen noch junges Fachgebiet der Medizin, das sich seit Mitte des 20. Jahrhunderts herausgebildet hat. Wesentliche Anstöße und Innovationen verdankt sie dem wissenschaftlich-ärztlichen Wirken eines der Herausgeber des Bandes, Prof. Dr. Erich Saling, der auch "Vater der Perinatalen Medizin" genannt wird. Er hat mit der Einführung der Fetalblutanalyse erstmals einen Zugang zum Ungeborenen eröffnet, was heute als Meilenstein am Beginn der Perinatalen Medizin gilt. Mit Ausnahme der 1985 erschienenen Aufsatzsammlung von Rooth und Saugstadt existieren zur Geschichte der Perinatalen Medizin nur Einzeldarstellungen unterschiedlicher Teilgebiete (z.B. fetale Überwachung sub partu, Ultraschall), entweder als Paper in Zeitschriften oder Kapitel in entsprechenden Lehrbüchern erschienen. Bislang gibt es jedoch kein Werk, das in einem integrativen Zusammenhang die Geschichte des noch jungen Fachs mit Schwerpunkt auf dem Beginn in den 1960er und frühen 1970er Jahren aber auch unter Würdigung wesentlicher Vorläufer und kurzer Darstellung der späteren Entwicklungen aus der Sicht einiger Beteiligter darstellt. Die Autoren des Bandes sind ausgewiesene Fachleute mit teilweise jahrzehntelanger Expertise auf den von ihnen beschriebenen Feldern.
Download or read book Perinatal Medicine written by J. Clinch and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 311 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Perinatal Medicine is a relatively new specialty, sited between the mechanistic approach of traditional obstetrics and the anticipatory and preventative out look expressed in the study of fetal growth which extends into monitoring neo natal progress and development. It is of primary importance that obstetricians and neonatologists should think alike and should not allow their interests to develop along separate lines. Frequent clinical consultations with neonat ologists cooperating in prenatal care and obstetricians visiting the special nur sery on a regular basis are essential if every fetus is to reach its full potential. Such aims have been advanced by previous European Congresses and it was our privilege in Dublin to host the IXth Congress held at the Royal Dublin Society from September 3rd to 5th 1984. Over nine hundred delegates rep resenting thirty-nine countries attended the scientific and social programme. The theme of the congress was the mature baby. The organizers felt that while major advances had been made in the management of prematurity there were still far too many mature fetuses dying and too many deaths in the nor mally formed appropriate weight for gestational age neonate. Hence antenatal fetal assessment, the management of labour including electronic monitoring in normal women and asphyxial brain damage were major topics. Pregnancy hy pertension, caesarean section, breech presentation, diabetes and unexplained mature stillbirth were workshop topics.
Download or read book Textbook of Diabetes and Pregnancy written by Moshe Hod and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2018-04-17 with total page 559 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Babies of women with diabetes are nearly five times more likely to be stillborn and almost three times more likely to die in the first three months. The incidence of gestational diabetes mellitus in the U.S. is high—between 3 and 7 percent—and rising. The condition is often complicated by other risk factors such as obesity and heart disease. The Textbook of Diabetes and Pregnancy presents a comprehensive review of the science, clinical management, and medical implications of gestational diabetes mellitus, a condition with serious consequences that is on the increase in all developed societies. This new edition supports the latest initiatives and strategies of the International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) and adds chapters on noncommunicable diseases, obesity, bariatric surgery, and epidemiology outside Western cultures. Written by a cadre of experts, the book provides a comprehensive, authoritative, and international view of gestational diabetes mellitus and will be invaluable to maternal-fetal medicine specialists, diabetologists, neonatologists, and a growing number of gynecologists and general physicians concerned with the management of noncommunicable diseases in pregnancy.
