DESCRIERE

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.
