Children are not small adults: their anatomy, physiology, drug doses and illnesses differ, and a seriously ill child can look deceptively well until sudden collapse. These lessons cover the paediatric assessment triangle, paediatric and neonatal resuscitation, croup, bronchiolitis and asthma, febrile seizures and serious infections, dehydration, emergencies of the newborn, and injuries and poisoning in children.
