Wong's Essentials of Pediatric Nursing, 10th Edition, provides foundational instruction in pediatric care using a developmental framework. The textbook earned first place in the Child Health category of the 2017 AJN Book of the Year Awards.
Coverage begins with child development, health promotion, and pain management across age groups from the newborn stage through adolescence. Subsequent chapters examine acute and chronic health problems, including respiratory, gastrointestinal, cardiovascular, and cerebral dysfunctions.
