An infection that occurs during pregnancy presents a constellation of problems above and beyond those normally associated with the disease. Even a relatively minor infection can threaten the lives of both mother and fetus and cause serious birth defects; and many conventional treatments can produce disastrous side effects during pregnancy. Over the past half-decade, enormous strides have been made in our ability to understand, diagnose, and treat infections in pregnant women.  Infections in Pregnancy, Second Edition, is expanded to cover the latest and most useful guidelines for understanding, diagnosing, and treating infections during pregnancy. This comprehensive volume contains in-depth explanations of dozens of diseases and their pathologies, from common infections, such as human papilloma virus, to new and rare diseases. It provides important information on the administration, monitoring, and side effects of new antibiotics; reviews the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's current guidelines for treating sexually transmitted diseases; and describes the latest methods for treating HIV-positive obstetrical patients.  Additional topics include: * Microflora of the genital tract * Urinary tract infection in pregnancy * Group B streptococcus infection in pregnancy * Pregnancy and septic shock * Sexually transmitted diseases: syphilis, gonorrhea, chlamydia, chancroid, lymphogranuloma venereum, granuloma inguinale, molluscum contagiosum, pediculosis pubis, scabies, and herpes simplex * Cytomegalovirus infection in pregnancy * Hepatitis in pregnancy * Varicella-Zoster infection in pregnancy * Mumps, measles, influenza, and pneumonia in pregnancy * Human parvovirus B19 infection in pregnancy * Protozoan infection in pregnancy  Written by two leading experts in the field and supplemented with more than 100 illustrations, Infections in Pregnancy, Second Edition, guides obstetricians, gynecologists, infectious disease specialists, and physicians in family practice and internal medicine in their efforts to minimize the short- and long-term impact of these infections.

<p>Vaginitis and its related conditions are the most common reasons women seek care from their gynecologists. However, it is not uncommon for women with complaints that suggest the presence of vaginitis or vaginosis to see their primary care physician or a nurse practitioner. While afflictions involving the vagina might not cause a great deal of discomfort, they can have a significantly negative impact on the patient's overall well being. This book is a tool for evaluating and managing the patient with vaginitis. After either reading this book or referring to it for specific guidance, the reader should be able to correctly evaluate a patient and develop a management regimen for most of the cases he or she will encounter.</p>
