Red Book® Online
The Authority on Pediatric Infectious Diseases from the American Academy of Pediatrics.
Red Book 2024–2027
Report of the Committee on Infectious Diseases
For more than 85 years, health care professionals have “referred to the Red Book” for trustworthy guidance on pediatric infectious disease prevention, management, and control. The new 33rd edition continues this tradition with the latest clinical guidance on the manifestations, etiology, epidemiology, diagnosis, and treatment of more than 200 childhood infectious diseases.
The AAP Red Book is published every three years, but the pediatric infectious disease landscape is changing continuously. Red Book Online is consistently updated with the latest recommendations from the AAP. This approach ensures that pediatric healthcare professionals have access to the most current information, enabling them to deliver optimal care to children. Information on updates can be found on the Updates and Errata page.
