Knowledge students build during pediatric courses is core physician knowledge relevant to areas outside of pediatrics or a specific pediatric subspecialty.
There are countless resources out there. Our goal is to help direct students to ones that are truly high quality and high yield! We update resources frequently while fully realizing these are constantly changing.
If there are additional resources you found helpful and would recommend to others, please share! Similarly if you tried one of the resources and found it NOT to be helpful and would NOT recommend it to others, also please let us know.
High yield pediatric resources recommended by students, residents, and faculty
Some of the most common presenting syndromes in Pediatrics, their differential diagnosis, and likely settings.
Core physician skills including patient and family communication, pediatric history and physical exam, clinical reasoning, verbal summary of a patient encounter, medical documentation, prescribing medications to kids, and feedback relevant to all areas of Pediatrics and medicine. We recommend students go through these prior to the first pediatric clinical experience and review with subsequent rotations.
We suggest students review these prior to the core pediatric clerkship sites (general ambulatory, general inpatient, well baby nursery) and before pediatric HRC volunteering.
We suggest students review these with various pediatric subspecialty sites/electives as well as based on on specific patient diagnoses they encounter
Learners receive a certificate following successful completion. The curricula are highly rated and used as required or supplemental resources in several of our pediatric electives courses. We strongly encourage all students interested in pediatrics complete these.
