Full Description
The Manual of Surgical Neonatal Intensive Care addresses the interdisciplinary area of perioperative management of newborns with surgical conditions. These babies generally spend less than a day in the operating room, but require weeks, or even months of complex pre and post operative care that spans medical and surgical areas of expertise. Though many textbooks and manuals address the strictlty medical or surgical management of newborns, relatively little has been written about issues that cross medical and surgical specialties. Information in this manual will be useful to clinicians to using working knowledge gained by clinicians
