Protocols for High-Risk Pregnancies: An Evidence-Based Approach

• better understand your patients' conditions
• devise optimum management strategies
• maximize the outcome and minimize the complications for both the mother and her fetus

To enhance clinical relevance, each protocol is written as if the patient were present. Evidence to support an intervention is given where it exists. The authors' experience provides additional wise counsel. Key references provide the springboard for a deeper understanding of a topic. In this more compact and fully updated sixth edition, new protocols include

• Amniotic fluid disorders
• Depression
• Fetal growth restriction
• HIV
• Indicated late preterm and early term birth
• Malaria
• Noninvasive prenatal diagnosis

Designed for clinical practice by the leaders of two generations of maternal-fetal medicine, no obstetrician or obstetric health care provider can afford to miss Protocols for High-Risk Pregnancy.
