Abstract:

This is a comprehensive, clinically orientated guide to the management of children with all forms of renal disease. Its purpose is to be a portable but complete reference for the day-to-day, bedside, and outpatient management of all conditions, either by the general paediatrician in their own hospital, by specialist paediatric nephrologists, or in shared care between general hospitals and specialized centres. Using bullet points and text boxes, it is easy to use, even in an emergency. The focus is principally on investigation and management, but it also includes some pathophysiology in order to enable better understanding of conditions such as fluid and electrolyte disorders in particular. Where possible, evidence-based recommendations are made, though in the many instances where high-quality evidence is lacking, recommendations are made based on the authors’ personal experience and current best practice. The chapters have been written by four authors who are experienced consultants at three large children’s hospitals in the United Kingdom and the United States.

Full text

Abstract:

The general principles of antimicrobial stewardship can be applied to the paediatric population, but children have unique challenges that must be addressed when considering a paediatric antimicrobial stewardship programme, including the aetiology of paediatric infections, the non-specific nature of these infections, the difficulty in obtaining microbiology specimens, and paucity of data on antimicrobial dose and duration. Different antimicrobial stewardship strategies tailored to neonates and children are required in primary care and secondary/tertiary care settings. While children with complex infections are generally managed in hospital settings where prescribing can be closely monitored by antimicrobial stewardship teams, the majority of paediatric antimicrobial prescribing occurs in primary care. Promoting and monitoring the judicious use of antimicrobials in this setting is especially challenging.

Abstract:

Successful transitioning involves input from both paediatric and adult multidisciplinary teams with overlap between the two services and tailored to the needs of each individual. This includes varying the duration of the preparatory phase and the timing of transition and eventual transfer based on the chronological and developmental age, maturity, medical stability, and psychosocial issues of each individual patient. Buddy systems and peer support may aid smooth transitioning for some, with the promotion of patients attending a clinic with similar age groups, which can include the formation of a young adult clinic. Effective collaboration between children’s and adult services is required to obtain successful transition of adolescent patients. Moving from one paediatric hospital to different adult specialists in different hospitals requires excellent communication between various teams. Some staff members from each adult nephrology unit should specialize in adolescent medicine and construct their own transitional care pathways to ensure effective communication and collaboration with appropriate paediatric units and facilitate continuity of care with ongoing educational and social programmes.

Abstract:

Point-of-Care Ultrasound for Emergency Medicine and Resuscitation (Oxford Clinical Imaging Guides) focuses on the day-to-day utility of point-of-care ultrasound in emergency medicine. The book explains how clinicians can safely and accurately use ultrasound for the diagnosis and management of shock, acute presentations, and phases of key conditions. The book begins with a summary of cardiac ultrasound before continuing through the chest, moving down to the abdomen, and finally considers the major vessels and soft tissues. Paediatric and pre-hospital ultrasound, as well as practical procedures, are also addressed. Each chapter begins at a basic level and moves on to higher-level skills. The book is highly illustrated with annotated diagrams showing structures and explaining how to interpret findings. The text is written in a user-friendly fashion with short paragraphs and headings. Technical terminology is explained throughout. A short section in each chapter outlines ‘core’ and ‘advanced’ applications. Each chapter has a clear ‘how to scan’ summary. The book reflects the content and skills included in current curricula for ultrasound use in national and international emergency medicine.

Abstract:

Even though anaesthetists may not regard themselves as specialists in the care of critically ill children, they are still at the forefront of the immediate care of critically ill children. Whether they have developed an interest in paediatric anaesthesia or because they have subspecialized in general intensive care, anaesthetists will find themselves called upon by colleagues in the emergency department or in paediatrics to exercise the knowledge and skills that no other group in the hospital possess. Additionally, when these children need to be moved either to a scanner or hyper-acutely to a tertiary unit (e.g. for neurosurgical intervention), then the skills and specific knowledge of the anaesthetist will be called upon again. These elements are recognized in the syllabi of both the Fellowship of the Royal College of Anaesthetists and the Fellowship of the Faculty of Intensive Care Medicine. This chapter gives the background to the characteristics of critically ill children, sets out the important elements of the conditions that will be commonly encountered, and provides a full résumé of the preparations that transferring teams will need in terms of personnel, their knowledge, skills, and equipment, and also a full exploration of the various methods of transport, road ambulance, rotary- and fixed-wing aircraft, and what all these entail for the clinical team.

Abstract:

The intensive care unit (ICU) can be defined as an area reserved for patients with potential or established organ failure and has the facilities for the diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of multi-organ failure. Usually, the ICU is located in close proximity to A & E, the radiology department, and the operating theatres, as it is between these areas that patient flows are greatest. In large urban hospitals, there may be more than one ICU, some of which serve specific patient populations, such as paediatrics, neurosurgery, cardiothoracic surgery, liver failure, and burns. Many hospitals also have high-dependency units (HDUs) that offer higher nurse-to-patient ratios and more advanced monitoring than a general wards does, as well as limited organ support. In the UK, the distinctions between ICU, HDU, and general ward have been abandoned in favour of a classification based on the patient’s needs rather than their location.

Abstract:

This two-volume work of 91 chapters covers all aspects of practice in anaesthesia. Volume 1 addresses the underpinning sciences of anaesthesia including physiology, pharmacology, physics, anaesthetic equipment, statistics, and evidence-based anaesthesia. Volume 1 also outlines the fundamental principles of anaesthetic practice including ethics, risk, informatics and technology for anaesthesia, human factors and simulation in anaesthetic practice, safety and quality assurance in anaesthesia, teaching, research, and outcomes, as well as all stages of the perioperative journey including preoperative assessment and optimization for anaesthesia, intraoperative monitoring, avoiding and managing hazards, post-surgical analgesia and acute pain management, and post-surgical anaesthetic complications. Volume 2 focuses on the clinical aspects of anaesthesia, including procedures, techniques and therapies, regional anaesthesia, the conduct of anaesthesia by surgical specialty, and paediatric and neonatal anaesthesia, including the resuscitation, stabilization, and transfer of sick and injured children. The clinical second volume also addresses the conduct of anaesthesia outside the operating theatre, including pre-hospital care, anaesthesia in remote locations, and military anaesthesia. The core knowledge for providing anaesthesia and managing comorbidities is provided, and in addition, those aspects of intensive care and pain medicine that are core knowledge for the general anaesthetist are covered. The book brings together key concepts, pertinent research from ongoing scientific endeavours, and clinical practice guidelines.

Abstract:

Obstetrics (a branch of medicine focusing on childbirth and midwifery), gynaecology (a field of medicine specific to women and girls with a particular focus on the reproductive system), and neonatology (a subspecialty of paediatrics focused on the care of newborn infants, especially those who are premature) cover the whole span of pre-conception, pregnancy, childbirth, and the postpartum period for both mothers and babies. The topics covered by these disciplines include family planning, reproductive medicine, menopausal and geriatric (older adult) gynaecology, maternal medicine, and female urology. Because of the breadth of these disciplines, care teams involve hospital clinicians, surgeons, family doctors, nurses, midwives, doulas, and health visitors, among others....

Abstract:

This title provides a unique resource for medical students and junior doctors as a definitive guide to the medical specialties. It is divided into 14 chapters, each covering a specialty area, including obstetrics, paediatrics, gynaecology, psychiatry, ophthalmology, primary care, ENT, dermatology, anaesthesia, eponymous syndromes, orthopaedics, trauma, emergency medicine, and pre-hospital care. Each chapter aims to cover the core content of the specialty in a concise and logical way, focussing on presentation, diagnosis and management of specific conditions and giving clear advice on clinical management. A unique feature of both books is the use of humour, anecdotes and philosophical asides, helping ensure a rounded, patient-centred approach to the practise of medicine.

Abstract:

The Oxford Handbook of Clinical Specialties covers each of the 14 core medical specialties encountered through medical school and Foundation Programme rotations. Packed full of high-quality illustrations, boxes, tables, and classifications, it is ideal for use at the direct point of care, whether on the ward or in the community, and for study and revision. Each chapter is easy to read and filled with digestible information, with features including ribbons to mark your most-used pages and mnemonics to help you memorize and retain key facts, while quotes from patients help the reader understand each problem better, enhancing the doctor/patient relationship. With reassuring and friendly advice throughout, this is the ultimate guide for every medical student and junior doctor for each clinical placement, and as a revision tool. This new edition has been reordered to follow a logical progression through the specialties, starting with an examination of the subjects of obstetrics, gynaecology, and paediatrics before moving on to ophthalmology, ear, nose, and throat (ENT), and dermatology. Orthopaedics and trauma are explored, leading through to emergency medicine, pre-hospital emergency medicine, and anaesthesia. Psychiatry and general practice are discussed before moving on to eponymous syndromes, and the book is rounded off by a new final chapter on doctors’ health and performance. Key references are flagged throughout, and included in a separate online resource.

Abstract:

This richly illustrated book fills a gap in the literature. It is not another history of famous researchers, but a history of endangered newborns and their fate in medicine and society from the earliest days of human thought, investigating what remained in medieval and persists in modern life. Each chapter rests on exhaustive research in hospital archives, libraries, churches, or excavation fields. With a global perspective, the book identifies technical, medical, social, and political conditions that improved—or compromised—the infant’s quality of life. The newborn’s history has multiple cultural implications. It depended on maternal care, breastfeeding, and cleanliness. Legislation had to protect babies from infanticide and to define the viability of preterm or malformed infants. By tracing the history of legal, philosophical, and social ideas about the newborn, the book develops three overarching themes across societies and times: (1) the newborn was not regarded as a complete human being, but as unfinished and endowed with only partial personhood; (2) rites of passage evolved everywhere, aiming to ‘complete’ the newborn and accept it in family and society; and (3) abandonment and infanticide suggest that many newborns were greeted with ambivalence, and that their frequent death was largely accepted by parents and societies. The book embraces all aspects of the transition from fetal to postnatal life. It will be of major interest to scholars, professionals, and students specializing in obstetrics, midwifery, paediatrics, and neonatology. Medical terminology has been used cautiously and a glossary makes the text accessible outside the health professions.
