A Child In Pain: What Health Professionals Can Do To Help Download Free (EPUB, PDF)
This volume is designed to help pediatric health professionals gain a true understanding of childhood pain. Pain is the most common reason for children to seek a medical consultation and sometimes is the most common reason for avoiding it. Unaddressed fears and anxiety complicate pain management and recovery. This book comprehensively examines children's fears and anxieties that accompany their need for pain relief, and gives the professional the communication skills and words that can help calm these fears. This book is addressed to all disciplines, and is organized into three parts: Part I explores the scientific understanding of pain as a part of children s development; Part II explores pain treatments themselves, their efficacies and how to combine them for therapeutic impact; and Part III uses this understanding to help translate knowledge into clinical practice in three major arenas of pediatric health care and the general practice setting: the physicians office, the dentist's office, and in the hospital. Without doubt, this volume will become a standard on pediatric pain management for many years to come.

This book has a lot of wonderful information for parents as well as health professionals. We have a child who suffers with chronic nerve pain and have been able to learn how to better help him deal with his pain. There is quite a bit of medical jargon but it is written in a way that anyone can gain valuable information especially with regards to how to talk to a child who is in pain.
Easy and enjoyable to read. Good information for students and parents alike.
The book reads quickly as I have a lot of experience working with kids and know many of the things stated.
this is exactly what my niece asked for and she was extremely happy to receive it as a Christmas gift
