Case studies examine key issues in perinatal cardiology, including definition of heart defects, functional status, clues to fetal diagnosis, testing, postnatal management, surgical options, long-term follow up, and recurrence of risk. Each chapter covers a particular disease and contains a handy reference section detailing the pathophysiology of each disorder. Helpful appendices cover the latest in advanced imaging techniques, including 3-dimensional echocardiography and color Doppler ultrasound. This handbook is ideal for anyone who cares for children with cardiac problems or pregnant patients with fetuses with congenital heart disease.
- A user-friendly bulleted format makes critical information easy to digest.
- The latest clinical information on advanced imaging techniques and fetal therapy helps you provide effective, state-of-the-art care.
- Extensive case-oriented discussions help you identify and treat specific fetal anomalies.
- Full-color Doppler images highlight areas of importance, making cardiac disease easier to detect.
- Helpful appendices provide quick guidance on normal echo measurements and Doppler venous flow values.
