Description

This book is intended as a practical guide to the initial management of children with symptoms of infectious diseases. Most of the acute infectious diseases likely to be encountered in general practice, in hospital outpatients, and in inpatients are included. The text introduces the antimicrobials available, then describes their use in specific infections and for individual organisms, including dosage details. A separate section covers prophylactic regimens for bacterial endocarditis, sepsis/meningitis, and viral disease. Finally, methods are presented for the collection and transport of specimens. For ease of use, Therapeutic Guidelines in Paediatric Infections provides information in table format wherever possible. This text will prove an essential reference for all physicians who treat paediatric infections.
