Handbook of Pediatric Emergency Medicine

The authors, an international panel of experts, have here created an easy reference on how to treat emergencies in children. Handbook of Pediatric Emergency Medicine provides concise but comprehensive information on the diagnosis, investigation and management of a range of conditions presenting to both accident and emergency departments and pediatricians. Particular attention is paid, through evidence-based material, to the most serious and frequently occurring conditions, such as head injuries, burns, animal bites, shock, trauma and child abuse. The book incorporates the most recent advances in pediatrics and considers both the individual needs of the child as a patient and the needs of the family. Emergency physicians and pediatricians will both find this handbook indispensable.

Atlas of Pediatric Cardiac CTA: Congenital Heart Disease

Atlas of Pediatric Cardiac CTA is a concise visual guide to the imaging of congenital heart disease in infants and children.  The book focuses on the utilization of cardiac CTA imaging for pediatric patients as distinct from adult patients, with an emphasis on techniques for retrospective and prospective scanning, reduction of the radiation dose, and CT data processing and analysis.  It also describes cardiac CTA evaluation search patterns to assess the complex anatomy in congenital heart patients.  As pediatric patients often present with multiple findings, separate chapters are devoted to the major structures of the cardiovascular system, accompanied with extensive imaging examples of the atria, ventricles, great vessels, coronary arteries, lungs and airways, and the situs. The book concludes with a review of shunts, procedures, and surgeries used in the management of this disorder.  Atlas of Pediatric Cardiac CTA is a valuable resource for radiologists, cardiologists, and other clinicians involved in the care of pediatric patients with congenital heart disease.

Review:

"Well referenced it is of practical interest to all pediatricians and certainly pulmonologists. Recommended to all pediatric libraries." Pediatic Endocrinology Reviews, September 2009

"In this well-organized textbook, editors Turcios and Fink (pediatric pulmonary specialists) provide a comprehensive guide to the respiratory complications that can accompany non-pulmonary diseases. Effects and interactions between disease and lung function are detailed in 14 chapters addressing cardiac, renal, hematologic and oncologic, endocrine and metabolic, neuromuscular, rheumatoid, dermatologic, parasitic, and genetic disorders as well as chronic lung disorder in infants, pulmonary manifestations in HIV and in other immunosuppressive diseases. The chapters are clearly laid out with well-designed chapter heads that list specific diseases covered therein, followed by tables (diagnostic criteria, classification criteria, associated conditions, etc.), graphs, diagrams and black and white photos. Encouraging the effective balance between pediatric pulmonary practice and other pediatric specialties, the text provides a reference for both diagnosis and therapy."

Diseases and Disorders in Infancy and Early Childhood

Currently, there are two types of pediatric disorder books available: high level technical books geared toward pediatric specialists, and self-help books for parents.  The technical books cover diagnosis and treatment, while the self-help books cover general problems, are single authored, and speak little to the research of any given disorder.  This volume consists of focused articles from the authoritative Encyclopedia of Infant and Early Childhood Development that cover the research information on common disorders in age 0-3.  Topics include those most typically occurring, making them of great interest to both specialists and nonspecialists.  Disorders and dysfunctjon of a variety of types are discussed, whether cognitive, social, emotional, or physiological.  Coverage includes asthma, allergies, colic, bedwetting, diarrhea, genetic disorders, SIDS and learning disabilities, and provides an essential, affordable reference for researchers in developmental psychology, as well as allied health fields.   

• Written at a level for general understanding—allows for easy and quick grasp of information to both specialists and non specialists alike
• Covers disorders across many systems (neurological, immunological etc) providing quicker access to info that would normally be dispersed across a wide literature
• Written by research experts ensuring accuracy that is sometimes lacking in non-specialist books
• Covers disorders, dysfunctions, and abnormal development in one place saving time looking at multiple sources for these related items
