CHICAGO, July 17,
2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- This handbook represents
expertise from specialists throughout the USA and Canada. It will assist health care providers
in their understanding and care of neurologically compromised and
at-risk neonates.
Created because Every NICU is a
Neuro-NICU!
The Handbook of Neonatal Neurology follows the continuum of
neuro-compromised and neuroprotective care, with each chapter
organized in an easy-to-follow outline format.
The book opens with the fundamental knowledge of normal central
nervous system development and a thorough neurological examination
of the neonate, with a focus on identifying even subtle
abnormalities.
Additional chapters provide details on common brain
malformations and abnormalities, metabolic encephalopathies,
degenerative and neuromuscular disorders, perinatal asphyxia and
hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy, central nervous system infections,
perinatal and postnatal head trauma, stroke, and seizures.
Developmental vulnerability of the preterm brain is highlighted
with additional discussions on intraventricular hemorrhage and
associated preterm brain lesions, and the neurological effects of
pain, stress, and sedation.
Finally, additional management guidance is provided for
neuroprotection, developmentally supportive care, family centered
care, and the approach to ethical, legal, and palliative care.
This 400-page publication is for neonatal health care providers
who are committed to optimizing neurodevelopmental outcomes in
these vulnerable babies.
