Designed for a wide and multi-disciplinary audience, the subjects covered range from theoretical to the clinical and the practically relevant, and all chapters include case studies that provide real-world scenarios as additional teaching tools for the reader.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003ePerinatal Palliative Care: A Clinical Guide\u003c\/i\u003e is divided into four sections. Part One provides the foundation, covering an overview of the field, key theories that guide the practice of perinatal palliative care, and includes a discussion of perinatal ethics and parental experiences and needs upon receiving a life-limiting fetal diagnosis. Part Two delves further into practical clinical care, guiding readers through issues of obstetrical management, genetic counseling, neonatal pain management, non-pain symptom management, spiritual care, and perinatal bereavement care. Part Three discusses models of perinatal palliative care, closely examining evidence for different types of PPC programs: from hospital-based programs, to community-based care, and examines issues of interdisciplinary PPC care coordination, birth planning, and team support. Finally, Part Four concludes the book with a close look at special considerations in the field. In this section, racial, ethnic, and cultural perspectives and implications for PPC are discussed, along with lessons in how to provide PPC for a wide-range of clinical and other healthcare workers. The book closes with a look to the future of the field of perinatal palliative care.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThorough and practical, \u003ci\u003ePerinatal Palliative Care: A Clinical Guide\u003c\/i\u003e is an ideal resource for any healthcare practitioner working with these vulnerable patient populations, from palliative care specialists, to obstetricians, midwifes, neonatologists, hospice providers, nurses, doulas, social workers, chaplains, therapists, ethicists, and child life specialists.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eIntroduction \u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eDefinition of palliative care in general \u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eDifference between palliative care and hospice\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eDefinition and description of perinatal palliative care\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eOverview of book and its’ intended uses\/audience\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eSection 1:  Parent Experiences with Life-limiting Fetal Diagnoses\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e  1.
