Download or read book Fetus and Neonate Volume 4 Body Fluids and Kidney Function written by Robert A. Brace and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1998-02-13 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This, the fourth volume in its series, focuses on fluid balance and its regulation in the fetus and neonate. With a high water content and rapid fluid movements, the fetus and neonate are more susceptible to fluid imbalances than the adult. This volume explains how fluid balance is regulated, by swallowing and by renal and lymphatic function. It then goes on to look at disorders of fluid balance and their pathophysiologies. Finally, the clinical section of the book focuses on management and correction of fetal edema, obstructive uropathies, oligohydramnios, polyhydramnios, and postnatal fluid disorders. This authoritative new publication provides a broad review of fluid balance and renal function from a scientific and clinical perspective.

Download or read book The Rise of Fetal and Neonatal Physiology written by Lawrence D. Longo and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-02-01 with total page 879 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This second edition offers an expanded and updated history of the field of fetal and neonatal development, allowing readers to gain a comprehensive understanding of the biological aspects that contribute to the wellbeing or pathophysiology of newborns. In this concluding opus of a long and prominent career as a clinical scientist, Dr. Longo has invited new contributions from noted colleagues with expertise in various fields to provide a historical perspective on the impact of how modern concepts emerged in the field of fetal physiology and contributed to the current attention paid to the fetal origins of diseases in adults. In addition to new chapters on maternal physiology and complications during pregnancy, others trace the history of the Society for Reproductive Investigation, governmental funding of perinatal research, and major initiatives to support training in the new discipline of maternal fetal medicine, including the Reproductive Scientist Development program. The extensive survey provided by the author, who personally knew most of the pioneers in the field, offers a unique guide for all clinical and basic scientists interested in the history of – and future approaches to diagnosing and treating – pathologies that represent the leading causes of neonatal mortality and, far too often, life-long morbidity.
Download or read book The Rise of Fetal and Neonatal Physiology written by Lawrence D. Longo and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-09-15 with total page 546 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the mid- to late-twentieth century, study of the physiology of the developing fetus and newborn infant evolved rapidly to become a major discipline in the biomedical sciences. Initially of interest from a standpoint of function of the placenta and oxygenation of the fetus, the field advanced to explore both normal functional mechanisms as well as pathophysiologic aspects of their regulation. Examples include studying the role and regulation of circulatory vascular anatomic shunts in oxygenation, cardiac function, certain aspects of asphyxia in the fetus and newborn infant, the role of fetal “breathing” movements, cyclic electroencephalographic activity, and analysis of electronic monitoring of fetal heart rate variability and its significance. Included in this book are reminisces of several dozen individuals who played a vital role in these developments. Overall, this survey considers a number of aspects of the development of the science of fetal and neonatal physiology, and its role in the greatly improved care of pregnant women and their newborn infants. This book is published on behalf of the American Physiological Society by Springer. Access to APS books published with Springer is free to APS members.
