The First Week of Life
British Births 1970, A Survey under the Joint Auspices of the National Birthday Trust Fund and the Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists, Volume 1: The First Week of Life covers a fresh survey and a national study of all deliveries during a one-week period in 1970. This report is composed of eight chapters, tracing the success of the First Perinatal Mortality Survey done in 1958 to the new British Births survey in 1970, which took place in the week beginning April 5, 1970 in England, Wales, Scotland, and Northern Ireland. Topics analyzed are factors affecting the accuracy of the measurement of birth weight and those affecting the length of gestation. These factors are grouped into social, biological, maternal, and fetal factors that include the precise use of the weighing machines and poor recording. A useful guide throughout the survey is the state of the baby's health. The illnesses prone to affect the baby are also discussed, from extra cranial injuries, hypoglycemia, hypocalcemia, congenital abnormalities, jaundice, and remaining other conditions such as feeding problems. The care of the baby is then discussed, including feeding patterns and the choice of feed. This report concludes with a discussion on stillbirths and deaths occurring in the first-week of life. Because of these surveys, British obstetric and pediatric management is improved, and the disabilities arising before and during birth, and in the early neonatal period, are reduced. This book is suitable for pediatricians, obstetricians and gynecologists, nurses, professors in general medicine, and administrators of public health services.
Proceedings of the 1st International Conference on Lifestyle Diseases and Natural Medicine (ICOLIFEMED 2024)
This book is an Open access. In the past few decades, there has been a growing recognition of the crucial role that lifestyle factors, such as diet, physical activity, and stress management, play in preventing and managing a wide range of chronic diseases. Lifestyle medicine has emerged as a response to this recognition, focusing on empowering individuals and communities to adopt healthier behaviors. At the same time, there has been a resurgence of interest in traditional and natural medicine approaches, which often emphasize integrating mind-body practices, herbal remedies, and other holistic therapies. We encourage bringing together researchers, clinicians, policymakers, and other stakeholders to explore the intersection of lifestyle diseases and natural medicine and to discuss how these complementary approaches can be integrated to address the health challenges of the 21st century. For this purpose, we are organizing The 1st International Conference on Lifestyle Diseases and Natural Medicine (ICOLIFEMED) , which will be held on December 5-6th, 2024. The theme of ICOLIFEMED 2024 is "Integration of healthy lifestyle and natural medicine in the prevention and management of modern diseases." About one hundred presenters and participants from Australia, Japan, China, Malaysia, Brunei Darussalam, and Indonesia will participate in this event.

Release Date: 2024-06-19
The field of neonatal care has been a long-standing concern within the broader field of child health, given the crucial role the neonatal stage plays in the development of individuals. While many of the most effective practices in neonatal care have been widely disseminated across maternal and childcare units globally, cultural and social differences, as well as the availability of resources, necessitate the adaptation of these practices to the specific contexts of each place. This book discusses a range of crucial topics related to neonatal care over two sections. It includes ten chapters that address pertinent issues in neonatal care. The book’s objective is to contribute to the clinical work of health teams in neonatal units by sharing content and lessons for efficient and safe care, both from the global context of the configuration of the therapeutic environment to specific topics of usual care. The chapters have been developed by specialists in neonatology from different countries, and through them, they hope to share part of their experience.
