This new edition of Neonatal Intensive Care Nursing is comprehensive, up to date and evidence based. With more pedagogical features and a practice-focused approach, this is an essential text for nurses and allied health professionals caring for sick newborn infants.

Neonatal Intensive Care Nursing focuses on the common problems and related care occurring within the neonatal specialty. It is thoroughly updated throughout, with three entirely new chapters on antenatal and perinatal care, continuing care beyond the neonatal unit, and specific diagnostic neonatal practice. There is new content on psychologically informed care of the family, community-based care, perinatal optimisation, health inequalities, diagnostic procedures, drug mechanisms, and more. The accessible and interactive approach used in the book enables readers to recognise, rationalise, and understand clinical problems using an evidence-based approach. Divided into four parts, the book provides an overview of neonatal care and a detailed look at the physical and emotional wellbeing of neonate and family, a range of clinical aspects of neonatal care, and key practices and procedures. The book’s web-based companion includes online resources, case studies with answer guides, and learning activities, and can be found at www.routledge.com/cw/petty.

Neonatal Intensive Care Nursing will be essential reading for both new and experienced nurses, allied health professionals, and students learning about neonatal care, including those undertaking qualifications in the neonatal specialism and pre-registration students taking relevant modules or placements.
