商品簡介
Pediatric gastroenterology is increasingly in demand, particularly in light of the impact chronic GI diseases have on children’s growth and development, and with certain GI conditions specific to infants. Fourteen chapters are divided into three parts: understanding gastrointestinal disorders; management and intervention; tools for clinical practice. Part one covers theory and issues. Part two describes defecation disorders which, although common are not well understood, as well as GI problems in autistic children; celiac disease, Crohn’s disease, tube feeding, and a case study. Part three presents the practitioner’s tool kit. The book targets health professionals, students, and trainees. There is an about the editors section, list of contributors, illustrations, and references. Annotation c2014 Ringgold, Inc., Portland, OR (protoview.com)
