The "Pediatric Emergency..." writen by Strange et al. (andsupported by the ACEP, what is not a minor fact) is a veryuseful resource for the non-emergency pediatrician. The bookhas a concise format and a practical approach for students,interns, family and emergency phisicians. Very Good.
Here is what you are missing from Tintinalli
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
This softcovered text is an excellent compliment to Tintinalli's reference textbook. This text is also endorsed by ACEP. If you are a resident like me and you are preparing for the boards or if you are an EP practicing in a rural or general ER you will appreciate this book. It has all the in depth pediatric information that you would need without many of the ultra rare diseases that a dedicated pediatric EP needs to know. The set up of the text and it's sections/chapters should be familiar to anyone that owns Tintinalli. The chapters are easy to read and very well referenced. There are several well reproduced images to complement the text. There are no color plates, but the B+W images are adequate (x-rays etc). It would be nice and appropriate if the next edition would have color photos of pediatric rashes, but this is something that I suppose can be seen in many other sources. Nonetheless, a pediatric EM text should have this. The trauma and intoxication sections are particularly well done and provide information information not found in "adult" EM texts, like Rosen and Tintinalli. For the price, it is a very good investment.
