As front line health care providers for children, pediatricians are
entrusted with the responsibility for discovering early signs of
heart diseases in this complex patient population. Especially in
the newborn period, the presentation of pediatric heart disease is
frequently obscure, and the consequences of these illnesses can be
devastating if not caught early and managed correctly. This
comprehensive, easy to understand book is a ready guide to
acquiring the proficiency and confidence necessary to decipher the
wide spectrum of disease presentations. Case scenarios give life to
each chapter, with key images and illustrations reinforcing notable
concepts. Special attention is given to the interpretation of chest
radiographs and the role of echocardiography and catheterization.
All chapters are dual authored by an academic cardiologist and a
practicing general pediatrician, resulting in this book's elegant
blend of medical authority, real life value, and fresh practical
viewpoints. Heart Diseases in Children: A Pediatrician's Guide is
divided into four sections. The first is an overall approach to
heart diseases in children with ample discussion to diagnostic
testing. The second and third sections cover the spectrum of
congenital heart defects and acquired heart diseases. The fourth
section prsents issues related to office cardiology. The book
concludes with an extensive drug appendix. Significant and
meaningful online complements, heart sounds and murmurs are
available at www.pedcard.rush.edu providing practitioners the
materials necessary to build confidence in their ausculatory
skills. This unique book is a go-to resource for pediatricians,
pediatric residents, family practitioners, medical students and
nurses, conveying essential information for the diagnosis and
treatment of pediatric heart diseases.
