Extracto de la crítica en Anesthesia & Analgesia

(...)This book is highly instructive. In the "Basic Principles" section, the revised chapter "Regulation of Fluids and Electrolytes in Infants and Children" serves as an excellent refresher course. (...) The listing of etiologies and treatments of various abnormalities, such as hypnatremia, hypernatremia, is worthwhile for clinicians.

Under the "General Approaches" section, there are several new and noteworthy topics. The "Psychological Aspects of Pediatrics" is one that brings together many of the relevant studies of the last decade and presents them in a readable chapter. The "Pain Management in Children" chapter is timely and important as it includes updated material on certain aspects of developmental data, discusses the assessment of pain in children, as well as pharmacological and behavioral approaches. (...)

The "Clinical Management" section now includes a chapter on "Anesthesia for Fetal Surgery" as well as a useful section on Bariatic Surgery. Chapters on Neonatal Surgery, Cardiovascular

Surgery, and Orthopedics continue to be innovative and relevant.^(...)

There is new content provided on "Anesthesia and Sedation for Pediatric Procedures Outside the Operating Room."(...) Along with safe approaches to care, this chapter supplies information to support those practitioners who want to maintain high safety standards and monitoring for pediatric patients undergoing sedation.
