Challenging Concepts in Paediatric Critical Care

Challenging Concepts in Paediatric Critical Care by Hari Krishnan

Providing the inside track on how the experts approach and deal with real-life clinical scenarios, Challenging Concepts in Paediatric Critical Care explores eighteen common, complex and often contentious topics seen in hospitals, high dependency units, and PICU's worldwide. These include cases on 'Paediatric acute respiratory distress syndrome', 'Traumatic brain injury', and 'Safeguarding children in paediatric intensive care'. With a case-based approach, complex patient presentations are explored thoroughly so that assessment, diagnosis, and management are fully considered and explored with 'Clinical Tips', 'Learning Points', and 'Evidence Base' boxes. Throughout commentary from an international expert identifies and explains the key points and controversies of each case. Aligned to the Royal College of Paediatrics and Child Health's paediatric intensive care medicine curriculum in the UK, the curriculum of Paediatric Basic Assessment and Support in Intensive Care (BASIC) course, and the European Paediatric/ Neonatal Intensive Care Diploma (EPIC), this text is ideal for training and assessment preparation. Aimed primarily at trainees and registrars in paediatric intensive care medicine, this text will appeal to those in the related disciplines of anaesthesia, emergency medicine, and paediatrics, as well as consultants and senior nurses.
