Abstract
Despite advances in care, Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia remains a complex and challenging condition to manage and is often associated with long term morbidity. Families are required to navigate considerable uncertainty, challenges in prognostication and communication, and must adapt to an evolving clinical trajectory. This review addresses considerations and practical tips for healthcare professionals to improve the family and patient experience from diagnosis to adult care, from the perspective of clinicians and CDH families. This paper emphasizes the importance of including those with lived experience with CDH in defining topics of priority in research and in clinical and support interventions.
期刊介绍:
Seminars in Fetal & Neonatal Medicine (formerly Seminars in Neonatology) is a bi-monthly journal which publishes topic-based issues, including current ''Hot Topics'' on the latest advances in fetal and neonatal medicine. The Journal is of interest to obstetricians and maternal-fetal medicine specialists.
The Journal commissions review-based content covering current clinical opinion on the care and treatment of the pregnant patient and the neonate and draws on the necessary specialist knowledge, including that of the pediatric pulmonologist, the pediatric infectious disease specialist, the surgeon, as well as the general pediatrician and obstetrician.
Each topic-based issue is edited by an authority in their field and contains 8-10 articles.
Seminars in Fetal & Neonatal Medicine provides:
• Coverage of major developments in neonatal care;
• Value to practising neonatologists, consultant and trainee pediatricians, obstetricians, midwives and fetal medicine specialists wishing to extend their knowledge in this field;
• Up-to-date information in an attractive and relevant format.
