商品簡介
Rather than give a recipe for a one-size-fits-all response, Beck (nursing, U. of Connecticut) and Driscoll (PhD, APRN, BC) provide a clinicians' guide that synthesizes their research and practical knowledge and encourages creative thinking in treatment. Chapters start with DSM-IV diagnostic criteria, then outline treatment, and give case studies using the Earthquake Assessment and NURSE program. The authors first introduce the NURSE model of assessment, then describe maternity blues, postpartum psychosis, bipolar II disorder, posttraumatic stress disorder caused by childbirth, and screening methods. The lengthiest chapter is on postpartum depression. The appendix lists medications used during pregnancy and breastfeeding. Annotation c2005 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
