At all levels of practice, it serves as a convenient reference to normal parameters, common variations, and less commonly seen abnormalities."--Susan Tucker Blackburn, RN, PhD, FAANAuthor of Maternal, Fetal, and Neonatal Physiology: A Clinical PerspectiveFrom the ForewordThe newly revised, 25th anniversary edition of this definitive publication on neonatal care continues to illustrate how to system...

Author of Maternal, Fetal, and Neonatal Physiology: A Clinical Perspective
From the Foreword
The newly revised, 25th anniversary edition of this definitive publication on neonatal care continues to illustrate how to systematically and accurately gather assessment data and interpret results. Because even normal newborns feature a wide range of physical variation, subtle signs that indicate internal malformations or syndromes may escape notice without a proper assessment. Many problems in the neonate can be noticed early by an astute nurse, neonatal nurse practitioner, neonatal physician assistant, or physician with honed assessment skills, long before electronic monitors or other equipment can detect them.
Physical Assessment of the Newborn, Sixth Edition, addresses the physical, physiologic, neurologic, and behavioral implications of a thorough assessment, and explains how healthcare providers can reduce the risks associated with the transition to extrauterine life and the neonatal period. Grounded with a scientific basis and rationale, each system assessment represents the most up-to-date clinical content. Because assessment skills are such an integral aspect of practice, many individuals take them for granted, yet all health professionals who perform newborn examinations-including nurses, neonatal and pediatric nurse practitioners, nurse-midwives, physicians, therapists, and students preparing for advanced practice roles in neonatal care-can benefit from the essential content presented in this book.
