This new edition of the best-selling popular manual, The Royal Children's Hospital Melbourne Paediatric Handbook, 9th Edition, is a succinct and practical guide to managing common and serious disorders in childhood.
Relevant to medical, nursing and allied health fields, this is both a useful source for revision and a handy guide to clinical management and rapid decision-making at point of care. Specific features of the Handbook include:
  • Clear illustrations, and plenty of accessible diagnostic and management algorithms
  • A Paediatric Pharmacopoeia Step-by-step guidelines for Paediatric procedures
  • Emphasis on the modern, community-based approach to the management of children s problems
  • A strong emphasis on practical management by the doctor at first contact

For this edition, the handbook has been restructured according to body systems and is now more closely aligned with the Royal Children's Hospital Clinical Practice Guidelines. It also includes updated evidence-based information in all chapters, an additional genetics chapter, new renal and oncology chapters and fully updated drug doses.

With well-presented, summarized information that you can pick up during a consultation, this interactive text is also an excellent supplemental handbook for students, junior medical staff and medical practitioners. A companion website to this title is available online.
