The Philadelphia Guide: Inpatient Pediatrics concisely yet comprehensively covers over 350 of the most commonly encountered pediatric medical conditions. Special emphasis is devoted to diagnostic and management strategies, making this an invaluable resource for residents and attendings caring for children in the inpatient setting. Arranged alphabetically by clinical area, this practical, pocket-sized handbook is highly organized in a consistent, easy-to-use format with uniform headings throughout each chapter. Three invaluable appendices cover normal vital signs, neonatal codes, and PALS algorithms, and convenient tables on the inside covers allow for rapid access to pediatric dosages for emergency, airway, and rapid sequence intubation medications, as well as defibrillation and cardioversion. Featuring critical, clinically relevant references at the end of each chapter, this up-to-date text also provides much needed patient information for the clinician or healthcare provider to give to parents, a needed resource in this patient population.
