Case Studies in Pediatric Critical Care presents a spectrum of real and interesting case studies relating to critically ill children. Each case study includes details of the presenting history and symptomatology, results of investigations and the subsequent critical care management of the patient. Cases have been chosen to illustrate the increasingly diverse range of problems that may be encountered by pediatric critical care physicians throughout the world. Alongside each case is a comprehensive discussion of the various treatment strategies available, and a short list of invaluable learning points summarize the key take-home messages of each case. Concise, practical and relevant, and written by expert pediatric intensivists, Case Studies in Pediatric Critical Care is an invaluable resource for anyone involved in the care of critically ill children.

Case Studies in Pediatric Critical Care 9780511581656 Medicine Health Science Books Reviews

This book is great for students and residents rotating in a pediatric intensive care unit. Cases include RSV, fulminant meningococcal septicemia, hypoplastic left heart syndrome, TCA poisoning, management of a status-post Fontan child, non-accidental trauma, head injury, diabetic ketoacidosis, and more. There are about 26 cases in all. They are very thorough and include minute-by-minute management strategies and a separate discussion section to further explain current standards of management for the particular condition. My only complaint, and it's a big one, is that the book is written by a mix of Brits and Americans, and the units of measurement change case by case between traditional and SI units. I don't know if a PaCO2 of 6.82kPa is good or not! Or a glucose of 62mmol/L? I wouldn't mind if there was a page or two of conversions, which would be easy to add to the next edition. Also, there are some differences in terminology that may make you scratch your head e.g. calling PE or "pressure-equalizing" tubes "grommets." That one I kind of liked.
