Pediatric patients account for nearly 30 million emergency department visits annually in the United States, yet the resources available to clinicians managing these cases remain fundamentally inadequate. Comprehensive references exceed 2,000 pages and $300, making them impractical for bedside use. Atlas-style resources offer diagnostic images without management depth. Quick-consult guides provide protocols stripped of the physiological understanding required to adapt when presentations deviate from expected patterns. And critically, nearly all existing resources are written exclusively for physicians — leaving the emergency nurses, nurse practitioners, and physician assistants who deliver the majority of frontline pediatric emergency care without an authoritative reference designed for their clinical reality. This gap between what emergency professionals need to know and what current resources actually teach has measurable clinical consequences. Clinical Atlas of Pediatric Emergency Care: A Complete Guide to Diagnosis, Triage, and Evidence-Based Management for Healthcare Professionals — by Rachel Whitmore, MD, FAAP, FACEP — is the 2026 comprehensive, mid-range pediatric emergency textbook the field has lacked. Designed for the entire multidisciplinary emergency team, this 499-page clinical atlas integrates visual diagnosis with evidence-based management in a focused, practice-ready format built for the bedside. What this book delivers: 20 systematically structured chapters covering pediatric assessment, resuscitation, organ-system emergencies, trauma, toxicology, neonatal emergencies, behavioral health crises, child maltreatment recognition, essential procedures, and emergency pharmacology - Integrated triage frameworks — Pediatric Assessment Triangle, Emergency Severity Index, Pediatric Early Warning Scores, and JumpSTART mass casualty triage — applied throughout every clinical chapter - Clinical illustrations, diagnostic imaging references, and procedural diagrams embedded at the point of clinical relevance - Eight rapid-reference appendices including weight-based drug dosing, Broselow tape references, age-specific vital sign ranges, laboratory values, burn assessment charts, and clinical pathway algorithms - Access to more than 100 clinical procedure demonstration videos - Contemporary content absent from competing texts: telehealth integration, AI-assisted clinical decision support, updated pediatric sepsis management, health equity frameworks, and clinician resilience strategies - Evidence-based management protocols for every major pediatric emergency presentation — from respiratory failure and status epilepticus to DKA, anaphylaxis, sickle cell crisis, and oncologic emergencies This book serves emergency department nurses pursuing CPEN certification, emergency medicine residents and medical students building pediatric competence, nurse practitioners and physician assistants managing pediatric patients across emergency and urgent care settings, and experienced clinicians requiring a current, consolidated clinical reference. Your pediatric patients present without warning. Your preparation should not have gaps.
