Ultrasound for Advanced Practitioners in Pregnancy and Women’s Health is an indispensable resource for midwives, women’s health nurse practitioners, OB/GYN physician assistants, nurses, and students. Using a scope of practice approach, it addresses specific clinical applications of ultrasound technology in all aspects of women’s health care. Developed by an advanced practitioner for advanced practitioners, this text includes the basics of ultrasound technology, step-by-step illustrations, more than 100 ultrasound images, and study questions. What’s more, it is also an ideal reference to prepare for the newly developed Midwife Sonography Certificate administered by the American Registry for Diagnostic Medical Sonography (ARDMS).
This comprehensive text emphasizes the practical application of electronic fetal monitoring (EFM). Case scenarios link various clinical situations with data interpretation to promote critical thinking. Relevant, up-to-date research helps readers develop problem solving skills; identify optimal treatment responses; and become familiar with the disease and nondisease conditions in pregnant patients that affect fetal health. More than 170 EFM strips complement the text. This edition has more monitoring strips and a new chapter on electronic record-keeping by a well-known expert. Electronic Fetal Monitoring: Concepts and Applications, Second Edition is a must-have purchase for anyone responsible for EFM interpretation.
This heavily illustrated, full color text serves as the most current and vital resource for providing safe and effective point-of-care assessment to fetuses and women -- offering a solid didactic base of knowledge in both electronic fetal monitoring and sonography. Section One, Electronic Fetal Monitoring, covers the physiology of the fetal heart rate and fetal monitoring technology, and elements of informational technology. Section Two, Sonography, highlights the clinical interdependence of point-of- care sonography as a complementary technology in conjunction with EFM. Point-of-Care Assessment in Pregnancy and Women's Health covers the principles needed to incorporate point of care songraphy into clinical practice; indications for diagnostic ultrasound; how ultrasound equipment works to help the reader obtain the best images; point-of-care sonographic assessment and evaluation of fetal well-being; and gynecologic and reproductive medicine imaging.
