Sommario/riassunto

The second edition of this text has proved to be a very successful pediatric study guide, helping many pediatricians around the world to



study pediatrics in a very easy, simplified way. Even the most complex subjects are condensed into very straight forward and easy to remember information blocks. This book not only prepares students to pass their exams but also prepares pediatricians for general pediatric encounters, emphasizing all new updates from the American Academy of Pediatrics and American Board of Pediatrics. It has proved very popular among new pediatricians and new pediatric residents worldwide. In the last 3 years, the AAP and ABP have released a lot of updates, such as, management of fever in well-appearing infants, COVID-19, asthma management, and new vaccine guidelines from the CDC. The pediatric board exam always includes new diseases, which are included in each chapter, as well as new questions and answers that must be added to the last-minute review chapter, as well as other questions to be edited to follow the new recommendations and guidelines in pediatrics. New pictures and better quality illustrations are also included. Pediatric residents and fellows preparing for the board examination, pediatricians, and pediatric subspecialists preparing for certification maintenance will find Pediatric Board Study Guide: A Last-Minute Review, 3rd edition, easy to use and comprehensive, making it the ideal resource and study tool. .
