Summary
The key new features include:
• An online version of the text, available on subscription, which allows greater flexibility in terms of content, the use of video material, and the inclusion of relevant weblinks.
• The content of the online version will be reviewed annually, with new evidence and content added where necessary. It is said that a conventional postgraduate medical textbook is out of date by the time it is published. High-Risk Pregnancy – Management Options is the only postgraduate textbook in obstetrics that features regular review and updating.
• The annual update represents a bigger commitment from authors and editors and thus the editor team has been enlarged.
• A new publisher, Cambridge University Press.
However, we retain many of the features that made High-Risk Pregnancy – Management Options successful:
• The original concept of an evidence-based text allowing the reader to answer the questions:
• What are the risks for the mother and/or the fetus with this condition or problem?
• What are the options for management with the condition or problem?
• How do I perform this procedure?
• The original layout style of:
• Introduction
• Risks (Maternal and Fetal)
• Management Options (Prepregnancy, Prenatal, Labor and Delivery, Postnatal)
• Summary of Management Options box
• It is a truly international postgraduate textbook with over 150 expert contributors from around the world. Overall, 20 countries are represented.
• All chapters have been written or updated to reflect the current management options and to incorporate changes in practice since the last edition. Over the years High-Risk Pregnancy - Management Options has been popular because it is relevant to the daily practice of its readers. In summary, the book is a manual for the management of problem pregnancies. We hope that the fifth edition will maintain and enhance that reputation and will prove even more valuable to busy clinicians.
