General Pediatrics holds a prominent place as one of the primary specialty subjects in medical school and medical practice. An understanding of children's health and disease is important for every physician, but particularly for pediatricians. Medical students become pediatricians (and other specialists) after graduation and residency. Ukot's Back to Basics MCQs: Mental Health, General Pediatrics, and Family Medicine considers it expedient to include general pediatrics, no matter how few the questions are and how brief the notes accompanying the answers are. Pediatrics is so important that it has numerous sub-specialties, which include pediatric surgery, cardiology, neurology, nephrology, and psychiatry. The author of this proposed book considers it important to select globally relevant and common conditions in childhood for inclusion in this short volume – this was difficult to achieve as what to include is fewer than what to exclude.
