An Evidence-Based Approach to Pediatric Emergencies
EB Medicine, April 2004
The articles selected for this volume focus on topics that impact the daily practice of emergency physicians. Being adept at handling neonatal problems, fever, abdominal pain, and critical illness or coma in young children is essential to making it through a week of shifts in most EDs. In this volume, the major controversies for each of these common topics are brought forward, discussed, and critically reviewed.
Each chapter includes:
- Clinical pathways that present solid diagnostic and treatment strategies, with each recommendation for action graded according to strength of evidence.
- References which present pertinent information such as type of study and number of patients.
- Tables where key information is condensed in an easy-to-read format.
- Pitfalls to avoid that provide risk management advice highlighting problem areas that could compromise patient care.
- Cost- and time-effective strategies that show that saving time and money in the ED doesn't have to mean cutting corners.
