Elements Series Coming Soon...
About this series
Elements in High-Risk Pregnancy: Management Options answers the key questions that any clinician encounters with a high-risk pregnancy: what are the risks for the woman and/or the baby with this condition? How do I manage a pregnancy complicated by this condition? How do I perform this procedure (e.g. amniocentesis, cesarean section)? A continuation of the highly successful book series, each individual Element will describe current, evidence-based management options for specific problems in pregnancy.
This invaluable series offers a comprehensive understanding of an extensive range of conditions in a high-risk pregnancy for specialists in maternal-fetal medicine, high-risk obstetrics, obstetric anaesthesia, perinatology, neonatology, and midwifery.
