Content:
Pediatric musculoskeletal infections are common globally. If untreated or treated inadequately, pediatric bone and joint infections can cause significant mortality and morbidity. The functional and economic burden to the family and community at large also presents a significant public health problem. This book serves as an evidence-based, comprehensive review of the current concepts for the early diagnosis and management of pediatric musculoskeletal infections. This first-of-its-kind book also uses a multidisciplinary and global approach by including contributions from authors worldwide. The book comprises five sections, making it easy to read starting from any chapter. Written by experts in the field, Pediatric Musculoskeletal Infections: Principles and Practice serve as an easily accessible resource for a wide-reaching audience of healthcare providers from multiple disciplines to aid them in making informed decisions while treating children with bone and joint infections.
