Berkowitz's Pediatrics. a Primary Care Approach

Description:

Provides concise, practice-oriented guidance on all the most common issues – both clinical and psychosocial – paediatricians are likely to encounter. It includes hands-on help on topics ranging from temper tantrums to childhood cancer, kidney disease, and diabetes. Each chapter reviews pertinent epidemiology and pathophysiology, then gives clear guidelines on what symptoms to look for, what alternative diagnoses to consider, what tests to order, and how to manage the patient.
