What is a pediatric reference that includes information on infectious diseases?

  1. Red Book: Infectious Diseases

  2. Nelson Textbook of Pediatrics

  3. Neofax and Pediatrics

  4. The Harriet Lane Handbook

The correct answer is: Red Book: Infectious Diseases

The correct answer is A, Red Book: Infectious Diseases. The Red Book is a trusted pediatric reference that specifically focuses on infectious diseases in children. It provides comprehensive information on the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of various infectious diseases commonly seen in pediatric patients. While the other options (Nelson Textbook of Pediatrics, Neofax and Pediatrics, and The Harriet Lane Handbook) are also valuable pediatric references, they do not specifically focus on infectious diseases like the Red Book does. For example, the Nelson Textbook of Pediatrics covers a wide range of pediatric topics beyond infectious diseases, Neofax primarily focuses on neonatal drug information, and The Harriet Lane Handbook is a general pediatric resource that includes information on various aspects of pediatric care.
