Description
"Children under the age of 16 comprise 20% of the population of the UK and of most industrialized countries, but in many developing countries children represent more than 50% of the population. In all countries, the management of children's health problems is a high proportion of the medical workload. Many GPs find that 30% of their consultations are for children, particularly pre-school children (under 5 years). (Medical students in the middle of a 2- or 3-month paediatric attachment may wonder why only 5% of their training should be devoted to children!) This chapter sets the scene for your study of paediatrics, starting with an overview of child health globally and in the UK"-- Provided by publisher.
