Written by neonatal nurses and midwives for nurses and midwives, this second edition highlights the collaborative nature of neonatal care and the provision of individualized, developmentally and culturally appropriate, family-centered care. Spanning all neonatal care levels and considerations, across special care baby units (SCBU) and neonatal intensive care units (NICU), the text comprehensively addresses newborn screening, resuscitation, interdisciplinary teamwork, retrievals and transport; stabilization of the high-risk newborn; legal and ethical issues; care of the normal newborn and end-of-life care in the neonatal unit.
