Completely updated and revised, Nelson’s Neonatal Antimicrobial Therapy, Second Edition, provides the most current, practical, and evidence-based recommendations for health care professionals treating neonates. Developed by leading experts in antimicrobial therapy, this resource aims to help clinicians select the right drug, dose, and duration for the treatment of bacterial, viral, fungal, and parasitic infections in neonates.Neonatal infectious disease therapeutics research continues to expand and respond to emerging novel pathogens and bacterial resistance. The recommendations in this book are based on the best available evidence to provide those taking care of neonates with the best possible treatment decisions, with updated guidance on dosing for low-birth-weight newborns, drug monographs for commonly prescribed drugs, and antimicrobial stewardship guidance for the nursery.

There are approximately 4 million newborns annually in the United States, including 400,000 infants born preterm. This care occurs in nurseries of all acuity levels, sizes, and regions across the country and is provided by a variety of providers, including pediatricians, family practice doctors, nurse practitioners, and physician assistants. The most common complication during the newborn period is suspected or proven infection – either those acquired during the delivery itself or before delivery in the womb. Indeed, 4 of the 8 most commonly-prescribed medications in newborns annually are antibiotics. Therefore, these providers must all be knowledgeable about the clinical presentation, epidemiology, and approach to diagnosis, treatment and prevention of neonatal infections. However, many of these nurseries do not have convenient access to pediatric infectious disease consultation or support, and would benefit from a convenient reference guide.This book effectively and succinctly covers the pathophysiology, epidemiology, clinical presentation, approach to diagnosis and treatment, and important aspects of preventative care for the most frequently encountered neonatal and congenital infections. The first section discusses common neonatal infections (i.e., those acquired during or after delivery), including sepsis, meningitis, pneumonia, and other focal infections. The second section covers the most frequently encountered congenital infections (i.e., those acquired via the placenta while the fetus is still in-utero). Finally, the concluding section discusses the basics of infection prevention in the nursery setting, including general principles of infection prevention, how to apply those principles to families, and how to manage a suspected outbreak of infection within a nursery.This book is a unique contribution to the field. Existing texts such as the AAP Red Book fold neonatal infections in within chapters on a given pathogen, but the information is difficult to find and access quickly. By covering neonatal and congenital infections thoroughly while still keeping each section clear and concise, this Handbook will be a valuable resource for the busy nursery provider.

Thoroughly updated and expanded, the second edition of Neonatal Infections is intended as a quick-reference guide for the busy clinician caring for newborns and young infants, whether in the nursery, the ward, the clinic, or the intensive care unit. It covers infections acquired during birth or while in the hospital (Part 1), as well as congenital infections acquired in utero (Part 2). Summary chapters regarding infection control and prevention, outbreak management, diagnosis of infection, antibiotic stewardship, and immunizations are also included (Part 3). Neonatal Infections is a concise yet thorough and visual handbook for infectious disease specialists, neonatologists, pediatricians, family practitioners, medical students, hospitalists, nurses, and all clinicians caring for infants in the nursery or neonatal intensive care unit.
