Handbook of Pediatric Neurology

Authors: Katherine Sims, Jurriaan Peters, Patricia Musolino, M. Zelime Elibol Publisher: Wolters Kluwer Health Edition: 1 Publish Year: 2013 ISBN: 9781451175486 Pediatric neurology presents so many challenges unique to young patients that it is in many ways a very different discipline from adult neurology. To help readers address these challenges, the Handbook of Pediatric Neurology uses a handy pocket format and streamlined organization to address the management of hospital- and clinic-based pediatric neurological work-up, diagnosis, and management. This practical handbook will appeal not only to pediatric neurologists, but also to pediatricians, adult neurologists and internal medicine physicians. • Timely coverage helps readers keep pace with the rapidly changing diagnostic tools, medications, and interventions. • Summary and outline format allows readers to access essential facts at a glance. • Practical organization presents each category of disorder, along with a focused differential diagnosis and clear management guidelines.
