Synopsis

From history and physical examination through electrocardiography and the management of special problems, this popular reference provides the practical guidance you need to diagnose and manage children with congenital and acquired heart disease. The fully revised 5th edition incorporates recent diagnostic and therapeutic advances in pediatric cardiac surgery, blood pressure standards, and cardiac arrhythmias.

Practical guidance from a single author presents the knowledge you need in a cohesive, consistent manner.
Extensive coverage of special problems, including congestive heart failure and syncope, helps you select the best approaches for your patients.
A compact, portable size facilitates easy reference in the busy clinical setting.

New coverage of surgical techniques in pediatric cardiology, the application of interventional non-surgical techniques, blood pressure standards, and cardiac arrhythmia treatments puts the most recent management approaches at your fingertips.
New line drawings guide you through the latest techniques.
