First Prize in the Paediatrics category at the British Medical
Association Book Awards 2009

Rehearse for life in clinical practice with this easy-to-use and
unique series, which combines cases drawn from real-life
experiences with a refreshing approach to presentations as you
would see them in day-to-day situations.

Get the most from clinical practice, with Clinical Cases
Uncovered

Guiding you through paediatrics, Clinical Cases Uncovered
presents real-life problems which you can work through and improve
on time and again. Each case looks at a different child, from
premature infant to teenager, with acute or long-term problems.
Presentations reflect common primary care and hospital-based
practice and will give you a detailed insight into how children
with a wide variety of problems can be assessed and managed.

The first section covers essential paediatric basics, then looks
at common disorders and useful pointers. There is a section on
practical assessment of children, helping you adapt your skills for
the age of the child and the presenting problem. The helpful
self-assessment section then lets you test all you have learnt and
makes for great revision.
