Summary :
Wong's Essentials of Pediatric Nursing has been a leading book in pedi- atric nursing since it was first published. This 11th edition contin- ues its tradition of being an essential resource for pediatric nursing and continues the legacy of Donna Wong, David Wilson, and Cheryl Rodgers, our beloved colleagues. We hold dear their contributions and our memories of their pursuit of excellence in all they did for the Wong textbooks. To accomplish this, Marilyn J. Hockenberry, as editor-in-chief, and many expert nurses and multidisciplinary specialists have revised, rewritten, or authored portions of the text on areas that are undergoing rapid and complex change. These areas include community nursing, development, immunizations, genetics, home care, pain assessment and management, high-risk newborn care, adolescent health issues, end-of-life care, and numerous pediatric diseases. We have carefully preserved aspects of the book that have met with universal acceptance: its state-of-the-art, research-based information; its strong, integrated focus on the family and community; its logical and user-friendly orga- nization; and its easy-to-read style.
