Written by individuals who between them currently share in the care of over 1,000 young diabetics, the book provides answers to the questions asked by parents and practical solutions to the problems confronting children, young people and their parents. In addition, suggestions and solutions are provided for professionals who are developing packages of care, audit systems, standards and activities outside the diabetic clinic. Special attention is given to the role of the paediatric diabetes nurse specialist and the purpose of the children's diabetic clinic, with particular strategies of care and examples of documentation being provided.

The management of diabetes in children and young people continues to develop in important areas, including self-monitoring, insulin delivery, dietary prescription, concept of control and the early identification of complications. Meanwhile responsibility for care has become a partnership between patients, parents and a multi-disciplinary team of health professionals. Key features of Childhood and Adolescent Diabetes include:
* Stand-alone chapters offering practical solutions to problems confronting children, young people and their parents
* Rational advice on monitoring and managing diabetic complications
* Guidance on the involvement of families, schools and teachers
* Discussion of the psychological aspects
* Recommendations on setting standards of care, audit, data-handling and registration
* Suggestions for setting up and running activities beyond the clinic
Practical and accessible, this manual will be invaluable to all members of the diabetes specialist team working with children, including diabetic physicians, paediatricians, diabetic nurse specialists and dieticians.
