Oxford Handbook of Neonatology

Hadi Practical Neonatology (Hadi PN), Book 2 is a focused, practice-oriented guide designed to support experienced neonatal teams in the day-to-day management of complex neonatal conditions. Building on prior knowledge of neonatal medicine, this volume does not aim to replace standard textbooks but instead provides structured, evidence-informed guidance derived from international protocols and the author’s extensive clinical experience as a consultant neonatologist. Written for the entire neonatal team—doctors and nurses alike—the book emphasizes integrated teamwork, bedside teaching, and practical decision-making, particularly in settings with variable resources and skill mixes. It critically examines routine neonatal practices that lack robust evidence, with the goal of improving safe, consistent, and effective care for the most vulnerable newborns.
