This book also serves as a valuableclinical resource for practicing PNPs and FNPs in pediatric primary care.The first chapter of the book reviews test-takingstrategies to help students plan their certification preparation, considers various approaches to test taking,and helps students organize their study time. The second chapter reviews growth and development; thethird chapter, which covers health promotion andwell child care for infants, children and adolescents,includes expanded information on the promotion ofbreastfeeding in the first year of life. The subsequentchapters of the book review the following systems:HEENT, cardiovascular, lower respiratory, dermatology, gastrointestinal, infectious diseases, musculoskeletal, neurological, GU and GYN (including adolescentpregnancy), hematologic/oncologic and immunologicviiidisorders, endocrine, and multisystem and genetic disorders.
