A comprehensive reference work which bridges the professional division between Obstetrics and Neonatology and offers a complete understanding of the development of a child's central nervous system from conception through to the first year of life. Neonatal intensive care units resuscitate increasing numbers of children born with degrees of prematurity, so an understanding of foetal neurophysiology and disorders of the developing CNS has become more important. Due to increasing litigation cases, obstetricians in particular, need to know how foetal problems translate post parium. The text considers all disorders of the nervous system that are likely to present clinical problems and includes new advances in foetal diagnosis and monitoring. This revised edition incorporates new advances in clinical practice. Five new chapters cover: methods for assessing cerebral metabolism in the perinatal brain; assessment and management of foetal ventriculomegaly; disorders of cranial and peripheral nerves; epidemiology of cerebral palsy; epidemiology of cerebral palsy; epidemiology of mental retardation.
The book contains contributions from an international team of 56 contributors (33 new to this edition) from 11 countries.
