Obstetrics in Family Medicine: A Practical Guide (Current Clinical Practice)

by Paul Lyons Nathan McLaughlin Monica Tulimiero

Obstetrics, as with all domains of medicine, is always advancing. New science leads to new practice while changes in the environment produce new and emerging challenges, such as the corona virus. The purpose of this new edition is to align this text and its state-of-the-art information with important changes that have occurred in the four years since the last edition was published. The first section of this book focuses on preconception and prenatal care. There are several crucial updates to these chapters. The most critical update to this section falls in the Vaccines in Pregnancy chapter and details the risks and benefits of the COVID vaccine in pregnant women and women looking to get pregnant. There are also counseling updates on preconception nutrition, preconception risk assessment, pre-existing disease management and advances in prenatal screening and prenatal US recommendations and infectious disease detection. Multiple updates on medications in pregnancy are also included as new classes of medications are frequent in this demographic such as diabetes and weight loss medications. The second section details various complications that arise in pregnancy. There are updates to the majority of the chapters in this section, some of which include new screening protocols for dysmorphic growth and genetics, treatments that have since been removed from preterm labor recommendations and again, the most major update would be to the infection in pregnancy chapter, particularly in terms of COVID. The smallest section of the book is the third one on labor and delivery. There are only three chapters in this section so there are minimal updates, but all current best practices are reflected. The fourth and fifth sections of this book focuses on complications of labor and delivery and postpartum management. There are both major and minor changes to these sections. A current understanding of what constitutes &“prolonged&” labor and best practice pathways are introduced as well as updates to the newborn evaluation including screening for genetic, cardiac and hearing issues as well as current guidelines for the management of hyperbilirubinemia. Written by experts in the field, this fully revised and expanded fourth edition of Obstetrics in Family Medicine is a valuable resource for a wide range of primary care providers who provide direct or indirect care of patients of childbearing age. This book also appeals to nurse practitioners, physician assistants and nursing personnel working in the primary care setting. Additionally, this book serves as a useful guide for medical providers who intersect with pregnant, or possibly pregnant patients including emergency medicine physicians, surgeons, EMT's and paramedics.

by Paul Lyons Nathan McLaughlin

These chapters include preconception counseling, prenatal care, dysmorphic growth, preterm labor, recurrent pregnancy loss, infection, diabetes, postdates, normal labor, induction and augmentation, prolonged labor, fetal heart rate monitoring, routine postpartum and complications postpartum. A new chapter has been added that covers vaccination in pregnancy as well as other routine wellness recommendations. Now in its fully revised and expanded third edition, Obstetrics in Family Medicine reflects the significant changes that have occurred in the field since 2015. This book remains the definitive resource for meeting the needs of a wide range of primary care providers who provide direct or indirect care of patients of childbearing age.

Obstetrie en gynaecologie: De voortplanting van de mens

by M. J. Heineman J.L.H. Evers L.F.A.G. Massuger E.A.P. Steegers

Het leerboek Obstetrie en gynaecologie. De voortplanting van de mens is een modern standaardwerk. De didactische opbouw, heldere stijl en de hoogwaardige illustraties maken het tot een onovertroffen leerboek. Elk hoofdstuk begint met leerdoelen en definities en wordt afgesloten met een samenvatting en een blik op de toekomst. Historie, methodologische aspecten, epidemiologie en demografie hebben een eigen plaats in de tekst, die is onderverdeeld in leer- en leesstukken. In kaders worden samenvattingen aangeboden. Casussen brengen theorie en praktijk bij elkaar. De referenties omvatten zowel klassieke en recente literatuur als vele internetadressen. in deze nieuwe, zevende druk is niet alleen de informatie geactualiseerd, maar zijn ook enkele nieuwe hoofdstukken (De jonge zwangerschap en Pre-maligne aandoeningen) toegevoegd. Daarnaast zijn er prachtige nieuwe illustraties opgenomen die eerder werden gepubliceerd in het boek Obstetrische interventies. En dat is niet alles: er is ook een begin gemaakt met een aan dit leerboek gekoppelde elektronische leeromgeving waar aanvullende informatie gevonden kan worden. Kijk voor verdere verdieping op de website StudieCloud.Het leerboek Obstetrie en gynaecologie heeft een lange geschiedenis. In 1973 verscheen, onder leiding van prof. dr. G.J. Kloosterman, De voortplanting van de mens, het voornaamste leerboek voor obstetrie en gynaecologie van de jaren zeventig en tachtig van de vorige eeuw. Het boek kwam tot stand door een goede samenwerking tussen de Nederlandstalige universiteitsklinieken en was uniek omdat voor het eerst in één leerboek alle onderdelen van de obstetrie en gynaecologie een plaats kregen. In 1993 nam prof. dr. P.J. Treffers het hoofdredacteurschap over en beleefde het boek, waarvan de titel was gewijzigd in Obstetrie en gynaecologie, twee drukken. Vanaf de derde druk is de uitgave herzien onder leiding van prof. dr. M.J. Heineman samen met nieuwe en jonge auteurs, allen werkend in vooraanstaande opleidingsklinieken, aan het bestaande schrijverscollectief toegevoegd waarmee de actualiteit van het leerboek gegarandeerd wordt.Inmiddels werken ruim zeventig specialisten, vrijwel allen actief in de zorg, mee aan dit boek. Daarmee wordt een volledig beeld gekregen van de obstetrie, gynaecologie en voortplantingsgeneeskunde en beschikken wij opnieuw over een compleet en overzichtelijk standaard
