Maternal Hemodynamics by Christoph Lees and Wilfried Gyselaers is a groundbreaking text that delves into cardiovascular adaptations during pregnancy, guided by experts in maternal-fetal medicine. The book explores the significant hemodynamic changes that occur as early as the first trimester, enabling a healthy pregnancy outcome for both mother and baby. When these adjustments are disrupted, conditions such as preeclampsia and intrauterine growth restriction may arise, posing risks to maternal and fetal health. Key highlights include:
- In-Depth Hemodynamic Overview: Analyzes each component of the maternal cardiovascular system and its adaptations, shedding light on the physiology and pathophysiology of pregnancy-related circulatory changes.
- Non-Invasive Assessment and Management: Provides advanced techniques for evaluating and managing cardiovascular conditions in pregnant patients to support maternal and neonatal health.
- Prevention and Risk Management: Focuses on preventing complications such as preeclampsia by monitoring and maintaining maternal cardiovascular health through all stages of pregnancy.
- Ideal for Specialists and Trainees: A vital resource for specialists in maternal-fetal medicine, as well as for trainees aiming to advance their knowledge on cutting-edge research and theories.
Maternal Hemodynamics is an essential guide for anyone in obstetrics and maternal-fetal medicine, combining research-backed insights with practical applications for optimal pregnancy management.
