Description
A clinical manual providing succinct, evidence-based guidelines to the diagnosis and management of approximately 100 common paediatric problems, as well as additional material on examination of children, milestone checks, immunisations, etc.. Each clinical problem will be covered in 1-3 pages of text, and the treatment recommendations will be supported by references to the best available guidelines, websites and other reference material. The book will help bridge the gap between primary and secondary care, so that it is clear when and where to manage the ill child - when to refer for hospital care, and when to manage within the primary care setting.
