DESCRIPTION
DESCRIPTION
As a pediatric subspecialty, neonatology poses a special challenge
for residents: rotations are short, but care for preterm and critically ill
patients is complex. Despite residents brief exposure to neonatology,
they're expected to have a good understanding of key concepts,
diagnoses and therapies when they sit for the boards. Attendings often
struggle with how best to teach these concepts, because residents don't
always have exposure to the range of babies they need to see to have a
good foundation in this area. Neonatology Case-Based Review addresses
this information gap by presenting 112 case-based multiple-choice
questions in neonatology. Cases are mapped to the American Board of
Pediatrics Content Specifications for pediatric residents; the Review
is appropriate for residents entering their neonatology rotation, as an
introduction to the subspecialty, and again as they study for their boards.
Answers include rationales so that the Review is a comprehensive
teaching guide for attendings as well.
Visual Diagnosis in Pediatrics is organized by presenting symptom -
"scalp swelling," "lumps on face" - and present a table of differential
diagnoses, with corresponding images placed side by side for
comparison. It's an incredibly user friendly, easy-to-read format,
and provides physicians a way to approach their patients, rather than
presenting them paragraphs of dense clinical information.
