Book Synopsis Pediatric Telephone Advice by : Barton D. Schmitt
Book excerpt: This handbook presents step-by-step protocols for telephone triage and advice for over 150 pediatric symptoms and chief complaints. Written in algorithmic format, the protocols list questions the health care professional should ask the caller to assess the urgency of the problem and determine whether it requires emergency intervention, an office visit, or home care. Where appropriate, the book provides first aid and home care instructions for parents and alerts parents to complications that warrant a call back.
