A one-of-a-kind handbook essential for the accurate analysis of blood specimens from pregnant women
Handbook of Diagnostic Biochemistry and Hematology in Normal Pregancy provides an important reference against which to compare the natural changes that occur in the blood biochemistry and hematology of pregnant women. The book provides data derived from over 70 routinely available biochemical and hematological tests that were conducted as part of a study of healthy, well-nourished pregnant women who completed an uncomplicated full-term singleton pregnancy. This data includes electrolytes, minerals, enzymes, proteins, hormones and nutritionally related parameters such as trace elements and vitamins. Significant factors affecting the final results of the tests such as sample demographics, study design, specimen collection and handling protocols, and test methodology are discussed in detail. Data is presented in graphs and tables to make reference quick and convenient.
Handbook of Diagnostic Biochemistry and Hematology in Normal Pregancy will be a critical reference handbook for physicians, nurses, and others involved in ante-natal and post-partum care. It will also be essential for laboratories that perform biochemical or hematological analyses on blood specimens from pregnant women.
