Book Description
Fetal heart rate monitoring affects the lives of millions of women and infants every year in the United States alone. Used by all members of the obstetric team - nurses, students, midwives, and physicians – it is the primary method to assess fetal oxygenation in both the antepartum and intrapartum setting. Improving outcomes and promoting patient safety depends upon correct use and interpretation of fetal heart rate monitoring, and is crucial to daily obstetric practice. This fourth edition provides the obstetrical team a framework within which to interpret and understand fetal heart rate tracings and their implications. The text covers key issues as the physiological basis for monitoring, a discussion of fetal hypoxemia and neonatal encephalopathy, instrumentation and pattern recognition. In addition to an in-depth review of the standardized NICHD nomenclature and three-tiered FHR Category approach, there are chapters on intrapartum and antepartum management as well as fetal central nervous system effects on monitor patterns. Since fetal monitoring is primarily a screening tool there are also discussions on the use of backup methods for evaluation of abnormal patterns. This 4th edition also brings the addition of Lisa A. Miller CNM, JD, who provides a nursing and midwifery perspective as well an enhanced legal and risk management review. This new fourth edition includes: Review of neonatal encephalopathy and recent studies on CP Currentinformation and discussion of most recent NICHD panel recommendations, both antepartum and intrapartum New chapter on Pitfalls in EFM Detailed chapter on risk management, liability & documentation New section on fetal maternal hemorrhage Update on new instrumentation Crucial information on maternal/fetal coincidence and FDA warnings All chapters include updated practice tips and clinical implications for the entire obstetric team Plus, with this edition clinicians have access to a companion website with full text and an image bank for fast & simplified clinical review.

Book Description
What if by hearing a mother's heartbeat we could accelerate our healing time to the exponential cell growth rate that occurs in the womb? A Mother's Heart Beat is the story of Chickee, a woman who develops a device that allows children's bodies to "listen" to a mother's heartbeat. With this, and by recruiting other women to become "linkers," she develops an organization, Mother's Heartbeat, through which she and other linkers help many sick children. As the story unfolds, Chickee and her fellow linkers discover that linking with children keeps them young. Due to her longevity for linking with so many young children, the story spans the long life of Chickee as she watches many of her family and friends die of old age or sickness, yet she continues on, aiming to keep her purpose strong in helping sick children. When some linking devices are stolen by drug users who can piggyback a high "two for the price of one," the discovery is made that linking with adults shortens one's life. Chickee's decision to stop her linking efforts completely is brought on by a disturbing and disheartening event that culminates in a drastic life change for Chickee. In the nursing home, she discovers that she can once again help others, by using the device to "transition" them from life into death. By doing so, she ages herself very quickly and feels empowered by choosing her own demise. Through it all she struggles to create meaning and make a difference in the lives of those around her.
