A Second Edition of this handbook of drugs used in pediatric cardiac care will satisfy the need for a quick up-to-date reference source of common drug therapy. There are no major texts available in the field of pediatric cardiology that exclusively provide therapeutic drug information. Several sources are available that present drug information for cardiology, but these place no emphasis on pediatric care and are written for general cardiac specialists.

In 2008, the first edition of the Handbook of Pediatric
Cardiovascular Drugs was produced with the main purpose
of providing health care practitioners with a tool to safely and
consistently prescribe and administer cardiovascular drugs in
children with cardiac disease. Half a decade later, this manual
remains the only book of its nature, and the time has come to
edit an updated version. As for the first edition, the editors
have endeavored in this occasion to provide an overview of
basic pediatric cardiovascular medications, in collaboration
with highly reputed authors. This pocket reference handbook
remains tailored to meet the daily challenges of practitioners
who care for pediatric cardiac patients, from the newborn to
the young adult. This book does not provide an extensive
review of all cardiovascular medications, but does compile
the basic information required to assist caregivers in their
daily clinical practice.
We sincerely hope that this second edition of the Handbook
of Pediatric Cardiovascular Drugs will be helpful to physicians,
fellows, residents, mid levels, pharmacists, nurses and
other practitioners within the multidisciplinary teams
involved in the complex and high-risk care of pediatric and
congenital patients with heart disease
