This is the most detailed, authoritative textbook available on the use of ultrasound markers in screening for fetal chromosomal defects. It describes in detail the methodology for calculating the risks for chromosomal defects using maternal age and gestational age as well as ultrasound findings. The authors explain how more than 90% of major chromosomal defects can be detected by combining data for fetal nuchal translucency thickness, fetal heart rate, maternal age, and maternal serum biochemistry at 10-14 weeks of gestation. The book is heavily referenced throughout and contains many illustra

This extensively illustrated book guides readers through the use of ultrasoundincluding modern 3D imagesto detect and identify birth defects in utero. Up-to-date advice is offered on the differential diagnosis of a wide range of fetal abnormalities. Throughout the book, ultrasound images are matched with actual birth pictures or abortus specimens. Each anomaly is discussed in a standardized, easy-to-follow format that covers characteristic features, pathogenesis and etiology, differential diagnosis, prognosis, and management.

Over the last decade, epidemiological studies have suggested that risk of coronary heart disease, stroke mortality and hypertension is, in part, related to the environment encountered during fetal life. In particular, maternal undernutrition during pregnancy has been highlighted as a causal factor in the long-term programming of disease risk. This book, which brings the perspectives of leading researchers from Europe, the U.S., and Austalasia, provides the reader with a detailed account of the evidence for and against the nutritional programming of human disease, and considers the biological b

Report of the Conference Committee on Fetal Research and Applications, Division of Health Promotion and Disease Prevention, Institute of Medicine. Report of the conference held June 20-22, 1992, in Irvine, California.Book DescriptionResearch involving human fetuses and fetal tissue has been a subject of national debate and rancor for more than two decades. Despite the many demonstrated medical benefits of such research and the issuance of guidelines by various governmental and private ethics advisory bodies, federal support of this research has been severely curtailed. In 1993 the Institute of

Provide the best care possible with expert insight and clinically relevant coverage of the physiologic changes that occur throughout all major periods of the perinatal experience - prenatal, intrapartum, postpartum, and neonatal. This text provides a solid foundation for assessment and therapeutic interventions, featuring an emphasis on the evolving interrelationships between mother, fetus, and neonate and adaptations of preterm and term infants to the extrauterine environment. This edition offers a new chapter on fetal assessment and surveillance, as well as expanded coverage of the physiolog
