Compared with children and other countries, American children have higher blood cholesterol levels and higher intake of saturated fatty acids. This work collects recent international research on heart disease in children, covering conditions including necrotizing enterocolitis, Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome, and fetal arrhythmias. It examines risk factors that can be controlled in childhood to lower the risk of heart disease in adulthood, and also examines new developments in the field, such as neurological abnormalities associated with congenital heart disease, and the diagnosis and management of patent ductus arteriosus. Therapeutic options for pediatric patients (including Down syndrome patients) are described. The book also discusses medical-legal aspects of diagnostic difficulties. B&w and color images are included. Information on the editors is not given. Annotation ©2010 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
