Many children with medical conditions fail to improve despite
physicians' best efforts. Sometimes, we ascribe this failure to
lack of adherence to therapy or to the severity of the condition.
What we often fail to appreciate, however is that sometimes the
lack of improvement can be explained by the patients' psychological
states. The first section of Functional Symptoms in Pediatric
Disease: A Clinical Guide teaches children's health care providers
to recognize functional symptoms that can complicate organic
disease as well as symptoms that are believed to be purely
functional in origin. Literature reviews, case studies and quizzes
are provided in each chapter, with video demonstrations included in
some of the chapters. The second section of the book will help
clinicians differentiate the patients for whom referral to a mental
health provider is mandatory from those for whom other approaches
may be useful. For the latter group, the book teaches clinicians to
empower themselves by learning how to incorporate various therapies
for functional disorders into their practice, including
biofeedback, basic cognitive behavioral therapy techniques,
hypnosis, acupressure, yoga and meditation. Practical strategies
for obtaining training in these modalities are provided in the
appendix. Useful for practicing clinicians including pediatricians,
family practitioners, pediatric subspecialists, child
psychiatrists, psychologists, other mental health care providers
and practitioners of alternative and complementary medicine,
Functional Symptoms in Pediatric Disease: A Clinical Guide is an
important new book that will help children's health care providers
consider the possible impact of functional contributions to the
clinical presentation of their patients.
