Wong's Essentials of Pediatric Nursing, 11th Edition is the #1 title in the pediatric nursing market for over 40 years — the trusted, comprehensive resource that equips nursing students and practitioners with the very latest research and guidelines for caring for children across all developmental stages. Selected for Doody's Core Titles® 2024 with Essential Purchase designation in Pediatrics, this Mosby/Elsevier text by Marilyn J. Hockenberry, David Wilson, and Cheryl C. Rodgers is a #1 Bestseller in Pediatric & Neonatal Nursing.
The text utilizes a highly readable writing style and a whole-body, developmental approach — beginning with child development and health promotion to provide foundational context before addressing specific health problems. This approach clearly identifies developmental tasks and influences at each stage of a child's growth, while an emphasis on wellness features health promotion chapters for each developmental stage of childhood, preparing nurses to support optimal pediatric health across all settings.
The 11th Edition features Next Generation NCLEX® (NGN)-style case studies and questions, a new chapter covering all systems cancers, additional case studies within nursing care plans, and updated and expanded evidence-based content throughout — reflecting the latest standards, trends, and evidence impacting pediatric nursing care today. These updates ensure students are fully prepared for the NGN examination and for evidence-based pediatric nursing practice.
Key topics include: child health promotion, growth and development, family-centered care, pediatric assessment, pain management, immunizations, common childhood illnesses, acute and chronic pediatric conditions, oncology nursing, neonatal care, and palliative care for children. The essential pediatric nursing text for ADN, BSN, and graduate nursing programs and a trusted clinical reference for practicing pediatric nurses.
