Pediatric Emergency Medicine Secrets, 4th ed. by Steven M. Selbst; Jillian Stevens Savage, 2025
The world is very different since the last edition of Pediatric Emergency Medicine Secrets . The COVID-19 pandemic changed us forever. Our priorities were rearranged, and we, perhaps, have a greater appreciation for health care providers on the front lines. However, what never changed is our desire to provide the highest quality emergency care to children across the country. Perhaps even more than ever, clinicians in emergency medicine need rapid access to reliable sources of information to assist in the care of children in the emergency department (ED). Pediatric Emergency Medicine Secrets is a unique textbook because of its question-and-answer format. Some questions focus on “fun trivia.” Most questions are clinically relevant and provide valuable information about common and unusual pediatric conditions seen in the ED.
Those who care for children in the ED know they will be challenged on every shift. Clinical questions arise with each patient and inquisitive trainees often bring interesting, stimulating queries to bedside discussions of pediatric patients. Physicians rarely have time to sort through lengthy texts or volumes of information to get their answers. This book highlights the difficult questions that arise daily in the ED. It offers succinct, up-to-date answers.
The fourth edition of Pediatric Emergency Medicine Secrets is divided into seven sections. The first section addresses life-threatening conditions and immediate stabilization of children. The second section features common chief complaints that are often managed in the ED. Later sections focus on important medical emergencies, surgical emergencies, major and minor trauma, and environmental emergencies. Finally, questions relating to special topics in pediatric emergency medicine (procedural sedation, bio-terrorism, ultrasound, risk management, and the transport of children to specialized centers) are included.
This fourth edition features several new chapters such as Sexual Assault, High-Altitude Illness, Disaster Preparedness, Point-of-Care Ultrasound, and Patient Safety and Quality Improvement. All other chapters have been revised and revamped with new questions and current references. Many chapters have classic photographs and radiographs to enhance learning. Each chapter features Key Points that highlight essential tips and pearls. The Top 100 Secrets have been collated and updated for rapid review and summary.
We recognize how demanding and rewarding it is to care for ill and injured children. We sincerely hope Pediatric Emergency Medicine Secrets fourth edition will be very useful to meet the challenges we all face on every shift. We believe the questions and answers in this book will inform and motivate the reader, as do our patients and our trainees.
