Childhood trauma is common and parental anxiety ensures frequent presentations to Emergency Departments, primary care physicians and minor injury units. This handy pocket guide has been designed to enable doctors, nurses and emergency nurse practitioners to manage common minor injuries in children appropriately, to know when to ask for help and of equal importance to identify when minor trauma is indicative of a more serious diagnosis. Providing concise information on initial assessment of the child, differential diagnosis and management of a wide range of minor traumas, the text is presented in an easy-to-read format with numerous lists, key points for rapid reference flagged for the reader with suitable symbols, and explanatory photographs and line diagrams. This book is an essential purchase for residents, nurse practitioners, staff in emergency departments, minor injuries units, primary care centers and pediatricians both in hospitals and in the community, to be referred to frequently in any setting that receives children following minor injury or trauma.
