Evidence Based Pediatrics and Child Health is a ground-breaking new
text on pediatrics and child care management, using evidence based
approach. It covers all the major childhood conditions and contains
the features of both a handbook and a reference text. Each chapter
combines both advice on management and how best to practice
evidence based medicine with reviews of all the available evidence
in a specific area.
The goal of the book is to help pediatricians and others who
care for children to provide the best possible care by combining
the best, most current evidence with special circumstances of each
individual patient.
