Pediatric rotations are a crucial part of medical education, yet didactic curricula often do not spend much time on pediatric-specific skills.  Learners often enter the pediatric clinical setting with little preparation and orientation.  The care of children is nuanced and specialized and requires a different approach than adult medicine. This text serves as a valuable resource for students on pediatric clinical rotations and for advanced practitioners entering pediatric clinical practice without much prior experience.

This high yield book covers the fundamental knowledge and skills required for pediatric care, including the physical, emotional, and social development of children, and the diagnosis and management of common pediatric conditions, with emphasizes on a patient-centered approach. Clinical pearls and application exercises embedded within each chapter help students prepare for real-life clinical scenarios and written examinations. The section on communication with the medical team reviews how to present pediatric patients on family-centered rounds, how to write succinct and useful notes, how to eloquently request a consult, and safely handoff a patient.  The book also features practical tips on inter-professional communication, breaking bad news, and strategies to enhance learning and achieve success while working within a pediatric care team.  Finally, a portion of the book is devoted to the considerations specific to the clinical settings where most learners rotate.

Written by experts in the field, Pediatric Rotations provides a detailed overview of skills required to be successful on pediatric wards and in pediatric clinics while also including the most up to date scientific and clinical information.
