Abstract:

This second edition of Golden Hours: Care of the Very Low Birth Weight Neonate has been re-organized to provide the reader better transitions between subject matter. This edition has also been expanded with new chapters, including "Procedures for Care and Management in the Delivery Room" and "Umbilical Cord Clamping and Transition at Birth". Time is of the essence when dealing with the Golden Hours, that short window to intervene on behalf of a very low birth weight infant. VLBW neonates comprise the majority of high-risk deliveries. Even when these neonates are vigorous and crying, pink and well-perfused, they are at risk. Decisions made in the first hours of life can result in a smooth transition to extrauterine life or can hasten and worsen maladaptation. Representing expertise from specialists from around the country (and world), Golden Hours: Care of the Very Low Birth Weight Neonate, 2nd Edition is a comprehensive guide that can help you change the outcome for an at-risk neonate.
