2013 BMA Medical Book Awards Highly Commended in Paediatrics!

An essential resource, covering possible problems expected at birth and common facets of antenatal consultations.

Antenatal Consults: A guide for neonatologists and paediatricians is a logically ordered and highly illustrated medical resource, essential for anyone involved in antenatal care.

This important book informs the multidisciplinary team - from obstetricians and maternity staff through to materno-foetal medicine specialists and, of course, paediatric and OBGYN trainees.

Featuring contributions from leading neonatal specialists in Australia, the book&aposs authoritative contents help arm antenatal staff with advice, information and examples of how to best counsel parents expecting a foetus at risk.

With over 50 informative, concise chapters, Antenatal Consults addresses numerous possible problems expected at birth - the most common reasons for an antenatal consultation - combined with advice on how to manage them.

These include maternal disorders that may affect the foetus; babies delivering prematurely or with a severe growth restriction; babies with a significant abnormality such as congenital heart disease, spina bifida or gastroschisis; and babies with a skeletal issue, a cleft palate or renal tract problem.

Antenatal Consults: A guide for neonatologists and paediatricians is also useful to midwifery, nursing and allied health staff that care for mothers and babies.
