  • Provides a clear management strategy for reducing lung damage and long-term sequelae in extremely premature infants, offering guidance based on the most up-to-date understanding of underlying pathophysiology.
  • Places emphasis on controversial areas that can entail different approaches.
  • Features the most current clinical information throughout, with an emphasis on those areas where there have been major new developments in recent years.
  • Includes new chapters on Perinatal Nutrition and the Lung; Caffeine: Respiratory Stimulant or Magic Bullet?; Lung Ultrasound and Electrical Impedance Tomography; New Lung Imaging Techniques: CT, MRI and Other Modalities; Alveolar Homeostasis and Chronic Lung Disease; and Fetal Intervention in Congenital Malformations of the Respiratory System.
  • Utilizes a consistent chapter organization to help you find information quickly and easily, and contains numerous charts, graphs, radiographic images, and photographs throughout.
