Fetal and Neonatal Brain Injury by David K. Stevenson,Philip Sunshine,William E. Benitz Pdf

Now in its third edition, this is a comprehensive survey of fetal and neonatal brain injury arising from hypoxia, ischemia or other causes. The volume spans a broad range of areas from epidemiology and pathogenesis, through to clinical manifestations and obstetric care, and then on to diagnosis, long-term outcomes, and medico-legal aspects. An important theme running throughout is to highlight scientific and clinical advances that have a role to play in minimising risk, improving clinical care and outcomes.

Acquired Brain Injury in the Fetus and Newborn by Michael Shevell,Steven Miller Pdf

International Reviews of Child Neurology Series No. 13 Given the tremendous advances in the last five years in the understanding of acquired neonatal brain injury and in the care of affected newborn infants, this book provides a timely review for the practising neurologist, neonatologist and pediatrician. The editors take a pragmatic approach, focusing on specific populations encountered regularly by the clinician. They begin by addressing aspects of fetal neurology and the interpretation of fetal imaging studies. They then follow a “bench to bedside” approach to acquired brain injury in the preterm and term newborn infant in the next chapters. The contributors, all internationally recognized clinician scientists, provide the clinician reader with a state-of-the art review in their area of expertise. The final section of the book address special populations and concerns, areas that are largely overlooked in existing neurology textbooks. Each of these areas has seen considerable advances in the last five years and is of increasing relevance to the neurologist and neonatologist clinician. The comprehensive nature of each section (from basic science to acute clinical care to outcomes) should appeal broadly to scientists and allied health professionals working in neonatal neurology. Readership Paediatric neurologists, neonatologists, neurologists and paediatricians, clinicians in child development, child health researchers and allied health professionals (in physiotherapy, occupational therapy, speech therapy and psychology). Trainees in these areas.

Progress in Fetal and Neonatal Brain Injury Research by Steven W. Levison Pdf

The immature brain is vulnerable to prenatal and postnatal stress, which may produce brain damage leading to neurological dysfunction in survivors. The articles in this special issue provide new insights into the pathophysiology and treatment of developmental brain injuries and functional outcomes. Information obtained using preclinical models as well as data from clinical studies emphasize the influence of hypoxia-ischemia, excitotoxicity, oxidative stress, seizures and inflammatory mediators on the outcome of developmental brain injury and ultimate neurological outcome. Importantly, several papers report preclinical tests of new therapies that show real promise in preventing injury to the developing brain including erythropoietin, melatonin and steroids. This publication will be of interest to both clinicians and basic scientists who are interested in the developing nervous system, its vulnerability to various pathophysiological processes and the eventual consequences for neurologic development.

Bridging Bench to Bedside in Fetal and Neonatal Brain Injury by Sidhartha Tan,Steven W. Levison Pdf

The immature brain is vulnerable to prenatal and postnatal stresses, which may produce brain damage leading to neurological dysfunction in survivors. This special issue presents new in-sights into the detection, pathophysiology and treatment of developmental brain injuries. Importantly, several papers in this issue report pre-clinical tests of new therapies that prevent injury to the developing brain including erythropoietin, insulin-like growth factor- 1 peptides and antioxidants. New insights into how to promote brain repair from neural stem cells is also reported. Information obtained from MRI on human infants, combined with data from several animal models, highlights the effects of hypoxia-ischemia interaction, excitotoxicity, oxidative stress, seizures and inflammation on the outcome of developmental brain injury and ultimate neurological outcome. This publication is recommended to both clinicians and basic scientists, who are interested in the developing nervous system, its vulnerability to various pathophysiological processes, and the eventual consequences for neurological development.

Neonatal Pain by Giuseppe Buonocore,Carlo Valerio Bellieni Pdf

This completely revised and updated edition offers a comprehensive overview of neonatal pain assessment and treatment. It includes the field of fetal surgery, and many other topics have been updated or added, such as circumcision analgesia, new drugs, new insights into neurophysiologic pathways of neonatal pain and new drawbacks of analgesic drugs. While in the early years of the 21st century pain treatment in neonates was still optional, it is now a tenet, and more and more institutions are looking for inspiration and good references to create their own guidelines. Written by leading researchers in the field, this book provides that inspiration and offers a valuable tool for neonatologists, anesthetists, nurses and physiotherapists. Since it also deals with prenatal and postnatal surgery, it also appeals to surgeons.

Neonatal Encephalopathy and Neurologic Outcome by American College of Obstetricians and Gy Pdf

Significantly revised and updated, the new second edition updates the science on neonatal encephalopathy presented in the 1st edition. The new 2nd edition recommends a broad evaluation of all potential contributing factors in every case of neonatal encephalopathy, including maternal medical history, obstetric and intrapartum factors, and placental pathology. This recommendation is a shift from the 2003 report, which focused on determining whether or not a hypoxic-ischemic event was the cause of neonatal encephalopathy. Includes new sections on - Placental pathology - Focal ischemic stroke - Neonatal interventions - Patient safety - Significant advances in neuroimaging This report will assist the clinician in evaluating a newborn with encephalopathy to assist in defining both the cause and timing.
