Beschreibung
Pediatric lipidology is a relatively new field of pediatrics. Premature cardiovascular diseases account for 30% of mortality in the United States. There is a heightened awareness regarding early recognition, prevention and management of childhood dyslipidemia.

This book fulfils the need for a concise, quick-reference guide on clinical approach to the management of pediatric lipid disorders. Rational and optimal medical practice approaches are outlined throughout the text. Current clinical guidelines for treatment of genetic and acquired pediatric dyslipidemias are reviewed with an emphasis on new data and novel therapeutic options. This book is aimed to guide clinical decisions and improve care of at-risk youth in the primary prevention of premature atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease.

Written by experts in the field, Pediatric Dyslipidemia includes the most up-to-date scientific and clinical information for pediatricians, endocrinologists, primary care practitioners and any other medical practitioners treating children with dyslipidemia.
