Il Caring è un albero rigoglioso, carico di capitale assistenziale, che contraddistingue l'essenza delle professioni sanitarie

Le malattie infettive sono tra le principali cause di morbilità e mortalità in età pediatrica in tutto il mondo. La loro gestione richiede una comprensione approfondita degli agenti eziologici, dell’epidemiologia e delle strategie di diagnosi, prevenzione e controllo; comprensione che questo manuale si propone di impostare e sostenere con uno strumento solido, utile e rapido da consultare.Nella prima sezione si descrivono gli agenti eziologici causa di malattie infettive pediatriche, dai batteri ai virus, dai protozoi ai funghi e ai parassiti. La loro variabilità e la loro capacità di mutare e di adattarsi impone una comprensione dinamica delle modalità di trasmissione, dei fattori di rischio e dei meccanismi patogenetici.Nella seconda sezione si illustrano i quadri clinici: ogni capitolo presenta le caratteristiche cliniche, le modalità di diagnosi, le opzioni terapeutiche, le strategie preventive e gli strumenti per la gestione delle patologie. Particolare attenzione è riservata alle malattie infettive emergenti e riemergenti, in un contesto di globalizzazione e di cambiamenti ambientali che può favorire la diffusione di nuovi o la ricomparsi di vecchi patogeni.In appendice si descrivono i principali test diagnostici, gli aspetti dell’immunizzazione attiva e passiva e le raccomandazioni per soggetti o situazioni a rischio. La prevenzione ha un ruolo essenziale nella gestione delle malattie infettive pediatriche; perciò, ampio spazio è riservato ai programmi di vaccinazione, alle pratiche di igiene e alle misure di controllo delle infezioni.
