Clinician’s Guide to Breastfeeding
Springer International Publishing (Verlag)
978-3-319-18193-6 (ISBN)
Medical literature for health care practitioners on the evaluation and treatment of breastfeeding issues has been disjointed, conflicting, and difficult to find. The field of breastfeeding medicine itself is nonexistent-there are no "breastfeeding doctors" who are specifically trained to understand this complex and interactive process. While much of the literature about breastfeeding describes how it "should" work, there is currently nothing available to explain why it often fails and how to treat it.
Clinician's Guide to Breastfeeding: Evidence-based Evaluation and Management is written for health care practitioners who work with breastfeeding mothers; physicians, nurses, nurse practitioners, and lactation consultants. It provides clear information and clinically tested strategies to help professionals guide new mothers to breastfeed successfully. The first of its kind to consider the entirety of the breastfeeding experience,Clinician's Guide to Breastfeeding is written by Dr. Linda D. Dahl, a leading expert on the subject. It is a comprehensive review of breastfeeding, covering objective analyses of ideal or "normal" nursing, as well as the evaluation and treatment of abnormal nursing, including case studies to illustrate the treatment decision-making process.
Dr. Linda Dahl is a board certified otolaryngologist and surgeon specializing in the evaluation and treatment of adult and pediatric patients. She received her medical degree at the University of Minnesota Medical School and completed her residency at Albert Einstein College of Medicine. In addition to her general ENT private practice, Dr. Dahl is one of a few otolaryngologists in the country who specializes in breastfeeding. Treating over a thousand babies a year, she has one of the largest breastfeeding practices in the world. She has also written and co-written articles published in scientific journals. Dr. Dahl maintains privileges at several New York City hospitals and lectures at medical conferences and hospitals.
