The book “Pediatric Gastroenterology: A Practical Guide for Physicians” provides practical, up-to-date guidance on managing the most common and less frequently encountered gastrointestinal disorders in children.
Gastrointestinal conditions in children, especially abdominal pain and constipation, are everyday and sometimes difficult challenges for all pediatricians, not only gastroenterologists.
This highly practical reference includes:
- diagnostic and treatment algorithms for gastrointestinal disorders,
- unusual symptoms and methods of diagnosing conditions in children,
- guidelines for assessing nutritional status,
- emergencies in gastroenterology,
- commonly used diagnostic investigations and laboratory tests,
- nutrition for healthy and ill children, including dietary approaches,
- psychological aspects of pediatric gastroenterology, particularly the challenges faced by patients with chronic and incurable diseases such as inflammatory bowel disease.
The chapter “A Diagnostic Shortcut: From Symptom to Diagnosis” will be particularly useful in everyday clinical practice.
