Description
"Comprehensive Neonatal Care" provides a comprehensive examination of neonatal nursing management from a physiologic and pathophysiologic approach. The book features a complete physiologic and embryonic foundation for each neonatal system as well as coverage of associated risk factors, genetics, critical periods of development, nutrition, and parenting. Kenner, through 3 editions, continues to be an outstanding neonatal nursing resource for both practitioners and graduate students. From the nursing perspective, Kenner is the only book of its kind, and now it is even better with the addition of 2-color printing!
