Previous Edition (1 ed.)

Abstract

Now in its second edition, the Oxford Handbook of Neonatology is a user-friendly guide for all healthcare professionals involved in the care of newborns. Accessible, practical, and updated with the latest evidence, this new addition to the bestselling Oxford Medical Handbook series is a key resource designed for use at the cot-side. Using guidance from the Royal College of Paediatrics and Child Health and including the most up-to-date NICE guidelines, the second edition of this handbook uses diagrams and an easy-to-assimilate format to cover good communication practice, neonatal emergencies, and technical procedures. With a new chapter on endocrinology, and fully updated and expanded sections covering therapeutic hypothermia and developmental care, amongst other advances in the field, the Oxford Handbook of Neonatology addresses post-natal and antenatal care and commonly encountered problems. It includes specific sections on cardiology, neurology, and haematology alongside other key areas needed for the clinician working with newborns.
