Product Description
This reference guide focuses on parasitic infections that affect pregnant women or newborn children. It is a practical resource for obstetricians, gynecologists, neonatologists, and specialists in tropical and infectious disease. Contributors describe the life cycle of each parasite and its geographical distribution, and provide guidelines for effective diagnosis and treatment. Emphasis is placed on maternal, fetal, and neonatal effects, and problems of prevention and treatment in the developing world. These findings provide insight into both the nature of parasitic dangers and the assessment of health care program priorities. |
