Inhaltsangabe

An up-to-date textbook on the clinical essentials in women's healthcare

Written by an international team of OB/GYN practitioners, this book offers an overview of the most important and common clinical issues in obstetrics and gynecology, including reproductive endocrinology, gynecologic oncology, maternal–fetal medicine, and sexuality. It provides readers with current information on evidence-based approaches to the management of normal pregnancy, labor and birth, as well as the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of high-risk pregnancy, infertility, and acute and chronic diseases, and psychiatric disorders in women of all ages. For each condition the authors give a clear definition, discuss its epidemiology, etiology and pathophysiology, and present the most up-to-date protocols for its detection, screening, and clinical management. They also provide a thoughtful evaluation of why certain therapies and approaches are more effective than others.

Features:

  • Clearly and consistently organized chapters for optimal comprehension of the material
  • A section dedicated to the legal and ethical issues related to reproductive health
  • 240 illustrations, most in full color, demonstrating critical concepts and data
  • A summary of key points at the end of most chapters and "Evidence" boxes that focus on evidence-based research

A comprehensive introduction to the field, Obstetrics and Gynecology: The Essentials of Clinical Care is an excellent textbook for medical students on clinical rotation in OB/GYN, and for residents and practitioners in the specialty. Nurses, midwives, and physician assistants will also benefit from its wealth of information.
