Now in a smaller, more portable format, the 2nd edition of this best-selling pocket reference offers concise yet complete clinical guidance on pediatric emergency care in the highly practical question-and-answer format of the Secrets Series. Each chapter covers an important topic by asking key questions and providing helpful answers. This second edition again features six sections: the first addresses life-threatening conditions and immediate stabilization of children, followed by a section on common chief complaints that are often managed in the emergency department. Subsequent sections focus on important medical emergencies, surgical emergencies, major and minor trauma, and environmental emergencies.
