| Summary |
"This book provides current diagnostic and treatment information on a broad range of chronic health-related disorders that tend to be first diagnosed in childhood. Psychologists widely recognized as experts in their respective fields examine common ailments, such as intestinal and respiratory disorders, as well as less frequent but challenging disorders such as neurocutaneous syndromes and disorders arising from sex chromosome anomalies. Two introductory chapters frame the overarching themes for psychologists by discussing contemporary issues in collaborative practice and service delivery. Fourteen chapters provide concise and current reviews of specific disorders, including cancer, kidney disease, endocrine disorders, and craniofacial anomalies. Each chapter defines the disorder, reviews etiology, risk factors, and prevalence data; outlines the behavioral, medical, psychoeducational, and socioemotional consequences of the disorder; and presents evidence-based interventions that are intended to mitigate the negative outcomes of the disorder and improve the lifelong functioning of children with chronic health-related disorders. The comprehensive medical discussions are tailored for psychologists and other behavioral health specialists"--Jacket. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2006 APA, all rights reserved) |
