Coverage begins with the epidemiology and genetics of childhood heart disease: basic cardiac physiology, morphology and nomenclature, followed by discussions of history taking and physical examination, echocardiography and other basic non-invasive investigations. Subsequent chapters describe best approaches to each of the most common lesions, diseases and disorders that clinicians are likely to face. Special care is given to congenital heart defects, where new research and emerging treatment modalities have greatly improved patient outcomes. The book also features information on advanced cardiac imaging techniques, catheter-based therapies, and the care of children who have received heart and lung transplants. Handy appendices provide at-a-glance information including resuscitation algorithms, endocarditis prophylaxis guidelines, and a formulary of commonly-prescribed pediatric cardiac drugs and dosages
