Description and Table of Contents
Description
Emphasizes the clinical management of critically ill and injured children in a quick and efficient manner. Each chapter provides an overall synopsis for a common clinical problem, thus simplifying patient evaluation and management, but also gives background to make it more than just an "outline". The algorithmic approach makes clinical decision making simplified, and with the useful and practical information the book can be used as a reference source for emergency departments.
