Dr. Hugh L. Moffet's popular handbook has now been thoroughly updated by two well-known specialists in pediatric infectious diseases. Organized by anatomic site of disease rather than by infectious agent, the book takes a problem-oriented approach to the diagnosis and treatment of infectious syndromes. It guides clinicians step by step through the process of classifying the illness, developing a differential diagnosis, establishing the definitive diagnosis, treating the patient, and anticipating and recognizing complications and life-threatening emergencies. This Fourth Edition has a greater focus on treatment and includes new chapters on HIV infection and AIDS and congenital immunodeficiency syndromes.
