La pediatria rappresenta uno dei principali argomenti per i quali vengono chiesti consigli in farmacia e, spesso, una porta di accesso per l'omeopatia all'interno delle famiglie. La pediatria e l'omeopatia sono infatti due specializzazioni felicemente complementari perché i medicinali omeopatici apportano incontestabilmente un plus alla medicina pediatrica (a condizione di conoscerne le indicazioni e i limiti), grazie alla loro efficacia, all'assenza di effetti tossici e alla completezza della loro azione. Poter consigliare o prescrivere un trattamento omeopatico adatto è un reale vantaggio per i professionisti della salute. Il volume illustra le diverse patologie caratterizzate da una sintomatologia acuta presentandole in base all'età del paziente: dal neonato fino all'adolescente. Ogni patologia è accompagnata da note di fisiopatologia, da un albero decisionale e da casi clinici che guidano il lettore dai sintomi alla prescrizione

This book describes in detail the potential role of ICT and electronic systems, together with the application of Web 2.0 technologies, in telepediatrics and child health. Rather than simply proposing engineering solutions that may soon become outdated, it is designed to address those real needs that telemedicine and developers are asked to meet. The orientation of the book is very much toward primary care and both low and high-income settings as well as extreme or complex scenarios are considered. The first two sections of the book describe different fields of application, such as the community, the hospital and children with chronic illnesses or special needs, and examine technical issues. The use of telemedicine in delivery of care in extreme rural settings and developing countries is then discussed, with attention also to major emergencies and humanitarian crises. The closing chapters consider the role of modern technologies in the education of caregivers who work with children. Child health is a crucial issue in both industrialized and developing countries. Telemedicine for Children's Health will be an excellent guide to the potential value of telemedicine devices in reducing the burden for children and parents and in offering quick and concrete solutions in low-resource scenarios.
