This book continues the tradition of this classic text--detailed discussions of the scientific principles of pediatric critical care translated into practical clinical applications. This new edition has an international roster of over 250 contributors and emphasizes areas of collaboration between critical care physicians and nurses. Other highlights of this edition include a new section on basic concepts of critical care, including genetic medicine; a new section on PICU systems, organization, and management; chapters on worldwide threats to children's health; and sections on life support technologies and invasive procedures. A companion Website will offer instant access to the fully searchable text.
