| Summary |
First published in 1981, this book provides obstetrical care physicians with a reference for managing patients using fetal heart rate monitoring as a means of primary surveillance. This third edition updates interpretation of heart rate tracings, includes results from the National Institutes of Health workshop, and includes coverage of fetal pulse oximetry for clarifying the significance of nonreassuring fetal heart rate patterns, and new areas of concern regarding infection resulting from fetal inflammatory response. The authors are all professors of medicine, U. of California, Irvine. Annotation (c)2003 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com) |
