Pediatric Cardiology

Walter H. Johnson

Caring for children with heart disease is extremely complex, requiring a different and often tailor-made approach compared with adults with similar cardiac problems. Built on the success of previous editions and brought to you by a stellar author team, Pediatric Cardiology: The Essential Pocket Guide provides a unique, concise and extremely practical overview of heart disease in children. From history-taking, physical examination, ECG, and chest X-ray — the basics that enable clinicians to uncover possible problems and eliminate areas of false concern — it goes on to examine the range of more complex topics in the diagnosis and treatment/management of childhood cardiovascular disease.
