The book opens with a global view of GBS, recounting the history and variation in risk factors and outcomes across regions. Subsequent chapters cover not only the biology, epidemiology and pathology, but also intricately describe infection management, treatment, and prevention options. Both early onset as well as late onset GBS disease are discussed.
Further, written accounts of lived experiences with varying outcomes are included, along with strategies to aid practitioners in improving care and understanding of babies and families impacted by GBS. The book concludes with clarification of common misconceptions and discussion of future directions in prevention and treatment options. This comprehensive reference offers evidence-based insights aimed at enhancing practice and ultimately improving perinatal outcomes.
