Objectives of the Course

This course, from the beginning of pregnancy until birth process, changes in the physiology of the embryo and fetus, problems may arise when there are deviations from the normal fetus, teaches coping methods. Physiological changes in the tests for the assessment of fetal health and appropriate intervention strategies to improve Diagnosing provide. In addition, teaching neonatal physiological adaptation mechanisms, diagnosis and intervention of usual freaking covers.

Course Content

Maternal physiology, embryonal development, fetal development, embryonal and fetal development phases to changes in the mother's compliance, high-risk pregnancies the mother and fetus occurring physiological changes and adaptation mechanisms of fetal health in evaluating tests physiological changes in diagnosing and midwifery practice, neonatal physiology, neonatal physiological adaptation mechanisms for diagnostics and midwifery care
