Bien nourrir son enfant est une des préoccupations majeures de tous les parents. Les pédiatres et médecins traitants sont ainsi constamment sollicités pour donner des conseils sur l'alimentation du nourrisson et du jeune enfant. Leur tâche est souvent difficile en raison de la diversité des opinions émises sur le sujet, et compte tenu de l'évolution permanente des recommandations en matière de nutrition infantile. L'objectif de cet ouvrage est de fournir aux praticiens, mais également aux parents qui le souhaitent, un guide pratique qui leur permettra à la fois de mieux comprendre les bases nutritionnelles qui régissent les règles diététiques développées et surtout de disposer de documents susceptibles d'être utilisés dans la grande majorité des situations, normales ou pathologiques, où des conseils alimentaires doivent êtres prodigués. Dans cette deuxième édition, nous avons conservé la configuration qui avait fait le succès de la précédente. Vous y retrouverez des tableaux de synthèse, des fiches menus types selon les âges et des alertes sur les erreurs alimentaires les plus fréquentes, tous faciles à consulter et éminemment pratiques. Cette nouvelle édition a également permis une mise à jour des connaissances qui ont considérablement évolué au cours des dernières années. Elle a enfin été l'occasion de corriger les nombreuses idées reçues qui circulent de plus en plus sur l'alimentation du nourrisson, en se basant toujours sur des arguments scientifiques dûment démontrés. Cet ouvrage pratique est destiné aux pédiatres, médecins généralistes, nutritionnistes, diététiciens, puéricultrices, infirmières, ainsi qu'à tous les parents qui désirent enrichir leur savoir sur l'alimentation de leur enfant.

This title is directed primarily towards health care professionals outside of the United States. Neonatology is a sub-speciality of paediatrics devoted to the care of the newborn infant. The wider care of the newborn infant includes not only the sick neonate but also the well newborn infant. The practice of neonatology is generally limited to specialist neonatal units and nurseries – ranging from those nurseries that deal with the well newborn infant to neonatal intensive care units. The care of the newborn infant is delivered by full time neonatologists, visiting medical officer neonatologists, paediatric registrars, senior house officers, nurses holding neonatal certificates, midwives and JMO’s. The book has been specifically written, formatted and designed to be carried whilst on duty, and contains information that staff in neonatal units will need during the course of their day – especially that information required often, but not yet committed to memory. This information requires continual reinforcement and in a busy unit there is no time to consult other references such as textbooks or computer based information.

This book provides a highly practical atlas on the use of echocardiography by the neonatologist in the management of the neonate. Whilst recognising the limitations of the non-specialist in echocardiography, the lavish use of illustrations and practical advice will provide an excellent companion to those being trained in and applying this technique in the special care baby unit.
