About this book

A panel of prominent clinician-scientists comprehensively reviews the latest developments in pediatric pain management, with special emphasis on the setting in which pain is detected and managed. The authors explore the cutting-edge of children's pain care in inpatient, outpatient, palliative care, school, and residential settings, and describe alternate approaches, including complementary and alternative medicine, pain management via the internet and information technology, and pain care in developing countries.

Reviews

From the reviews:

"...a good source for physicians as well as other healtcare providers who may participate in the care of children in environments likely to cause discomfort." -Weighted Numerical Score: 91 - 4 Stars!-Doody's Health Science Book Review Journal

"...serves as an up-to-date review of contemporary approaches to the unique needs of pediatric patients." -Weighted Numerical Score: 91 - 4 Stars!-Doody's Health Science Book Review Journal

"This is a multi-authored book with the majority being from Canada and then the U.S.A. … this would be a useful adjunctive book for a paediatric pain service library. … would be very helpful for the community paediatrician or perhaps the general practitioner undertaking significant paediatric pain problems on an outpatient basis." (M. G. Cooper, Anaesthesia and Intensive Care, Vol. 36 (3), May, 2008)
