Reviews

This is a unique book and course that has been taught for over 30 years as an adjunct to the Neonatal Resuscitation Program. This second edition of the cardiac module is a welcome update of the 2003 original. It has easily understood illustrations and directions to help providers treating newborns with CHD prior to transport. It is an excellent teaching tool and will find multiple uses in the education of neonatal providers. - Doody's 4-Star Review (Jay P. Goldsmith, MD, Tulane University School of Medicine)
