Now in a thoroughly updated second edition, Clinical Manual of Pediatric Consultation-Liaison Psychiatry remains the only textbook in the field that provides a focused and useful clinical guide to the psychiatric and psychological assessment of physically ill children and adolescents. Covering all of the common clinical psychiatric consultation questions that arise in the pediatric hospital, this book is designed for both novice trainees approaching their first pediatric consultation-liaison psychiatry rotations and advanced and experienced practitioners seeking information on psychopharmacological management of physically ill children. Chapters 1–4 provide an overview of pediatric consultation-liaison psychiatry, including assessment principles and legal and forensic issues. Chapters 5–14 are devoted to specific psychiatric symptoms and disorders in physically ill children and adolescents. Chapters 15–18 address issues related to treatment and intervention. New to the second edition are discussions of catatonia, serotonin syndrome, neuroleptic malignant syndrome, autoimmune encephalitis, and pediatric acute-onset neuropsychiatric syndrome (PANS), as well as an overview of fabricated or induced illness symptoms. Completely updated to reflect advances in research and treatment options, Clinical Manual of Pediatric Consultation-Liaison Psychiatry provides practitioners with concise and pragmatic ways of organizing the key issues that arise in psychiatric consultation with physically ill children and their families.

Shaw and DeMaso's first edition of this book in 2006 filled a much needed void, providing a concise yet comprehensive source of clinically important information regarding the psychiatric needs of physically ill children and their families. Their work exemplified a truly biopsychosocial approach, focusing on the patient, family, and system of care. It has been a long wait for the second edition from these two most distinguished leaders in pediatric consultation-liaison psychiatry, but here it is, updated throughout, with two entirely new chapters on neurocognitive disorders and pediatric condition falsification. Child and adolescent psychiatrists and psychiatric nurse practitioners, pediatricians, child psychologists, pediatric social workers, and adult consultation-liaison psychiatrists can all benefit from this book.
