Riassunto

Now completely revised and updated, this comprehensive reference covers all aspects of caring for the critically ill child. Pediatric Critical Care 2.e discusses the differences between critical care of adults and that of children, exploring relevant structural and functional aspects, pathophysiology, and treatment of common diseases that afflict and critically injure children. Physiology, biochemistry and molecular biology are all included, with an emphasis on clinically applicable information. The clear,logical organ-system approach includes development, function, disease and treatment for each entity, and helps the reader relate normal function, pathophysiology, and treatment to clinical problems.
