- Summary:
- This practical resource provides a solid foundation for assessment and therapeutic interventions applicable to advanced practice. A superb synthesis of research from physiology and the clinical sciences, this book focuses on normal physiologic changes during pregnancy, anatomic and functional development of the fetus, and developmental physiology of preterm and term neonates. Comprehensive, detailed, well illustrated, and exhaustively referenced, the second edition examines physiologic foundations for the prenatal, intrapartum, and postpartum periods. It also provides an in-depth study of physiologic adaptations and developmental physiology for major body systems or metabolic processes.
