  • New format - now with colour - makes learning even easier!

  • Explores the use and significance of the Modified Early Obstetric Warning Scoring Chart

  • Discusses advances in equipment usage including the application of sequential compression devices, temporal artery thermometers, and pulse oximetry in the early detection of critical congenital heart disease

  • Contains advances in microbiology and infection control including the application and removal of gloves and the use of ANTT for each relevant procedure

  • Physiology updates include an expanded section on normal and abnormal breathing patterns, the structure of the stratum corneum at birth and the factors that affect its barrier function, and neonatal reflexes present at birth

  • Updated information regarding the use of the automated external defibrillator during maternal resuscitation, and the use of blended air and oxygen and pulse oximetry during neonatal resuscitation
