What will you learn?

The word pediatrics is derived from two Greek words paidi which means "child" and iatros which means "doctor". The obvious difference between paediatrics and adult medicine is the size of the patient. The smaller body of an infant is substantially different physiologically from that of an adult. Congenital defects, genetic variance, immunology, oncology, and a host of other issues are unique to the realm of pediatrics.

This programme emphasizes and addresses the difference between treating an adult and treating a child.
