Synopsis

To ensure the needs of the child undergoing surgery are met, health care practitioners must not only be an advocate for the child and family, highly flexible and skilled practitioners, but also have sufficient depth of knowledge to support clinical decisions. Easily accessible, accurate and up-to-date information is vital in a busy clinical environment. It would be difficult (and perhaps undesirable) to address the specific care required for the range of surgical paediatric specialties within one large volume. A series of texts is proposed, relating to the care the children whose health needs require primarily surgical treatment. The first book in the series forms and introduction to the general practices and principles of caring for the child requiring surgery. Subsequent books will focus upon a specific body system or related conditions. This series is aimed primarily at qualified nurses, but will also be a useful support and training aid to student nurses and other professionals allied to medicine and working in a children's surgical environment.
