Summary

"The second edition of the AAP Textbook of Pediatric Care was created by a distinguished editorial team led by Thomas K. McInerny, MD, FAAP. Featuring contributions from experienced clinicians worldwide, this textbook addresses clinical issues faced by physicians who care for children: screening, diagnosis, treatment, and management for both common and uncommon diseases. The second edition contains more than 75 new chapters on specific diseases, conditions, signs, symptoms, and more. Priorities for the 21st century, including the practice of evidence-based medicine, electronic health records, and continuous quality improvement, are also addressed. There is fully integrated coverage of mental health topics, in keeping with the Academy's mission, and enhanced discussion of the family-centered medical home, including important topics such as health literacy. Because the practice of pediatrics is constantly changing and because we need information to be accessible in multiple ways, we also offer this textbook as part of Pediatric Care Online, our Web-based point-of-care resource. Pediatric Care Online was brand new when the first edition of this textbook was published. It has since grown into an indispensable and comprehensive resource for the practicing pediatrician. It features the complete text of this book and the Red Book, an extensive library of patient education handouts in English and Spanish, quick reference topics based on this book, interactive clinical tools, and much more."--Publisher
