Description
Dr. Baker's widely used Handbook of Pediatric Primary Care has now been updated and expanded into two volumes: Pediatric Primary Care: Well-Child Care and Pediatric Primary Care: Ill-Child Care.

These practical handbooks provide easily accessible information on virtually every problem encountered in the primary care of children. Pediatric Primary Care: Well-Child Care focuses on health maintenance supervision and behavioral and developmental pediatrics. New chapters cover newborn screening, the sports physical, the adolescent visit, injury prevention, telephone medicine, and medical informatics. A significantly expanded behavioral and developmental section includes new chapters on negative behaviors, childhood sexuality, and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder.
  • Several new chapters cover newborn screening, the sports physical, the adolescent visit, and injury prevention.
  • Additional chapters address and expand on age-specific well-child visits.
  • The behavioral and developmental section, significantly expanded, covers common negative behaviors that a primary care provider should be able to help parents manage, as well as a chapter on child sexuality.
  • Discussions of developmental topics of importance to the primary care provider include the approach to the developmentally delayed child, school issues, and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder.
  • Includes chapters addressing telephone medicine, medical informatics, cultural competence, and teaching in the primary care setting.
  • The end of each chapter lists up-to-date references and reviews, including Internet sites, for the reader who wishes more information about any of the topics discussed.
