Product Description:
Hypertensive disorders remain one the major causes of maternal and fetal morbidity and death. It is also a leading cause of preterm birth now known to be a risk factor in remote cardiovascular disease. Despite this the hypertensive disorders remain marginally studied and management is often controversial. Chesley's Hypertensive Disorders in Pregnancy, remains one of the beacons to guide this field, recognized for its uniqueness and utility. The Third Edition continues this tradition, focusing on prediction, prevention, and management for clinicians, and is an essential reference text for clinical and basic investigators alike. Differing from other texts devoted to preeclampsia, it covers the whole gamut of high blood pressure, and not just preeclampsia.
NEW TO THE THIRD EDITION:
* New chapters focusing on recent discoveries in angiogenesis, auto-antibodies and other recent immunological findings, imaging in eclampsa, animal models - where considerable progress has emerged since the previous edition
* Extensive updates to chapters on epidemiology, etiological considerations, pathophysiology, prediction, prevention, and management
* Systematic reviews and metanalysis of trials regarding prediction and antihypertensive treatment
* Discussions on the emerging roles of metabolic syndrome and obesity and the increasing incidence of preeclampsia
* Epodemiological coverage of preeclampsia as a risk factor for future metabolic and cardiovascular disease that permits early intervention and life style changes

Summary: An outstanding reference book
Rating: 4
Chesley's Hypertensive Disorders of Pregnancy is the seminal textbook on the subject. It is really strong on the epidemiology of the hypertensive disorders of pregnancy. It is a little weak on the basic science side, with chapters written by investigators highlighting their own research, not a broad enough scope of the field in my opinion. That being said, it is the best that is out there, and a "must have" for clinicians and researchers interested in hypertension in pregnancy in all of its forms.

Summary: methyldopa-pheochromocytoma-pregnacy
Rating: 4
As a cardiologist that has been involved recently in dealing with hypertension and pregnacy I found this book very useful, but with surprise I notice that in Chapter 19, Chronic Hypertension and Pregnacy by P. August and M. Lindheimer there isn't any mention about the interference that can produce methyldopa in the laboratory diagnostic of pheocromocytoma.

Summary: PRACTICAL AND BASICAL
Rating: 4
IT'S ESENCIAL FO GYNAECOLOGIST TO HAVE THE CONTROL IN THE MANAGE OF HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE DURIG PREGNANCY, AND THIS BOOK WILL PROVIDE YOU ALL THE INFORMATION YOU'LL NEED TO DO IT
