Clinical Protocols in Pediatrics is approach-based, algorithmic and naturally ready to use. The book deals with ideas, which can be practised in any reasonably good hospital set-up. It also covers emergency situations that can be dealt with both by emergency physicians and pediatricians. Chapters on dermatology, orthopedics and even psychiatry discuss topics where there is a clear boundary what as a pediatrician and emergency specialist should do and when he should refer to other specialists.
