"We revised the textbook based on the recommendations of those who have used it-faculty from various states and students in all types of programs-and our own experiences. Revisions include enhanced rationale for nursing actions in all chapters, increased content in pathophysiology in many areas, and expanded high-risk content. We have updated content to keep current in standards in practice, including new guidelines for management of pregnancy complications, management of postpartum hemorrhage, management of intrapartal fetal heart rate abnormalities, assessment and care of the late preterm infant, and assessment and care of the newborn with hyperbilirubinemia. We have expanded sections on patient education, patient teaching resources, and complementary and alternative therapies. Professional standards of care for maternity nurses are based on current practice guidelines and research"-- Provided by publisher.
