Abstract
A functional knowledge of general pediatric principles is essential for pediatric consultation-liaison (C-L) providers. While a review of the full breadth of pediatrics is beyond the scope of this textbook, this chapter endeavors to cull relevant issues often encountered in a pediatric C-L service and to examine them through a general pediatrics lens. Familiarity with the pediatrician’s rationale and approach adds depth to the pediatric C-L providers’ care and provides insight and allows for more collaboration with pediatric colleagues. Links and references to convenient charts, tables, and patient handouts are provided throughout the chapter. Current treatment guidelines (e.g., for obesity and diabetes), with acknowledgement that they can and will change over time, are referenced with links to principal regulating agencies for the most up-to-date information available to the reader.
