Edited by leading experts in the field, Decision Making in Obstetrics is a practical reference designed for obstetricians, primary care providers, trainees, and other clinicians who care for pregnant women. Organized by area of focus and then by specific disease or complaint, each chapter walks you through the process of examination, diagnosis, treatment, and management considerations. Key concepts are presented in an algorithmic format, providing easy-to-interpret decision trees that visually outline the critical steps and choices involved in patient management. In addition, brief explanatory text accompanies each algorithm, clarifying the significance of important decision points and encouraging systematic, logical thinking throughout the diagnostic and treatment process.
Contains dozens of clinical algorithms that follow a uniform format for quick and easy navigation, with clear explanatory notes alongside each decision tree
Provides algorithms for the wide variety of conditions and disorders you’re likely to encounter in every area of obstetric care, such as seizures and headache; anemia and hemophilia; renal failure and UTIs; asthma and COPD; diabetes and obesity; hypertension and heart disease; Crohn’s disease; mood and anxiety disorders; obstetric complications; infectious diseases; critical care; and many more
Covers common clinical diagnostic and management situations, serving as a useful teaching tool for trainees or a quick reference for physicians wanting a brief, uncluttered format to enhance clinical decision making
