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 both medical and surgical areas of expertise. 

The topics covered include embryology, prenatal diagnosis/treatment, postnatal presentation, postnatal diagnosis, differential diagnosis, preoperative management, implications for anesthesia, surgican management, postoperative management, and complications/outcomes. New chapters on gastrointestinal reflux and differential diagnosis have been added to this edition.

Though many textbooks and manuals address the strictlty medical or surgical management of newborns, relatively little has been written about issues that cross the boundaries of the medical and surgical specialties.
