Reviews
Review “This book is written for physicians at or near completion of pediatrics residency training, in preparation for their board exam. It is especially helpful for pediatricians up for recertification who want a quick review of subjects. This book is a useful study resource. It is comprehensive and easily accessible.” (Michael Harries, Doody’s Book Reviews, February 14, 2020). From the Author “I owe my deepest gratitude to the contributors whose expertise helped bring this pediatric resource to life”. From the Inside Flap The Pediatric Board Study Guide: A Last Minute Review provides the core material needed to pass the General Pediatrics Certifying Examination by the American Board of Pediatrics (ABP) and to meet the requirements required for the ABP Maintenance of Certification. This book contains a total of 33 chapters; the first 31 chapters discuss all aspects of pediatric medicine and are all updated according to the most recent content specifications provided by the ABP. Chapter 32 reviews common pediatric radiology cases, while Chapter 33, the final chapter, consists of high-yield last minute review cases. The second edition is notably more comprehensive and detailed than the first. Improvements over the previous edition include more illustrations and added chapters. Each chapter has been either written or reviewed by an expert in that specific field from a top academic institution in the United States. New chapters include Sports Medicine, Nutrition, Fluids and Electrolytes, Ethics, Patient Safety and Quality Improvement, and Pharmacology. Finally, to make the chapters even more incisive, “Pearls and Pitfalls” have been added at the end of each chapter. The 80 clinical case scenarios in the Radiology Review (Chap. 32), with its distinct images and radiological findings, should not only improve exam performance but also help the general pediatrician to identify common radiological findings. The final chapter, Last Minute Review, has been expanded in this new edition. These high- yield cases are arranged in the same sequence as the book chapters and placed in a way that allows the reader to discriminate among diseases and conditions, helping the test taker to distinguish between similar presenting cases on the exam. The final chapter allows the reader to review in the shortest time possible more than 1700 critical facts for the pediatric board exam, making it the ideal resource for the week prior to the exam. This book is of particular interest to pediatricians, fellows, pediatric subspecialists preparing for the board examination or certification maintenance, pediatric residents preparing for the in-service exam, daily rounds, and real-life clinical encounters
