Many children admitted to the pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) are admitted with serious infections. If they do not have serious infections prior to admission, there is also a high chance of them acquiring nosocomial infection once admitted. Many syndromes may lead to serious infection and the need for high dependency or intensive care. In addition, the numbers of children who are severely immunocompromised and surviving for extended periods are increasing. Any delay in therapy may produce more severe infection in an immunocompetent patient. As the influence of genetic factors in infectious disease becomes evident and new therapies and new modes of therapy have been introduced, there is the need to draw together these topics into one text. Infectious Diseases in the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit specifically examines infectious disease aspects of pediatric intensive care, from the reasons for admission, the risks of nosocomial infection, infection control, modes of therapy and outcomes.
From the reviews:
JAMA Review, March 5, 2008 - Vol 299, No 9 (Reprinted)
" ... The editor is joined by 35 chapter authors, with multicontinent bylines representing not only Europe, North America, and Australia, but also Latin America (Panama), Africa (Kenya), and Asia (Vietnam). The result is a book with international perspective that reminds readers of the challenges of caring for critically ill infants and children in settings with diverse disease epidemiologies and limited resources ... Infectious Diseases in the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit will be of special interest and usefulness to the pediatric intensivist, to his or her infectious disease consultant, and to those in training who aspire to fill such roles" (Mark D. Widome, MD, MPH; JAMA 2008)
"This book, intended for those working in pediatric intensive care units, is designed to increase the understanding of reasons for infectious complications, including their epidemiology, host factors, and microbiologic causes. Moreover, it emphasizes new treatment modalities and prevention. ... The authors' intent, to offer readers useful information for the management of children cared for in intensive care units both in the developed and developing world, is certainly a worthy objective." (Russell Steele, MD, Doody's Review Service, March, 2008)
"The purpose of the book is to provide a comprehensive overview of infectious diseases in critically ill neonates and infants. ... is primarily directed at physicians working with children in intensive care facilities who are not infectious diseases specialists. ... the book could also reach out to a larger audience, including medical students and infectious disease fellows who are not paediatricians. ... It is a useful guide for paediatric intensive care fellows and physicians ... ." (Walter Zingg and Stephan Harbarth, Critical Care, Issue 12, 2008)
