Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The first edition of this Special Issue summarized current knowledge regarding the "Diagnosis and Treatment of Pediatric Emergencies". Many interesting studies have provided new and fundamental insights into pediatric emergencies. Further studies on the diagnosis and treatment of pediatric emergencies are required, leading to our decision to open submissions for the 2nd edition of this Special Issue.
Pediatric patients present to the emergency department with various pathologies. Children of all ages differ from adult patients due to their anatomy, physiology, development, and emotional needs. Reduced familiarity with pediatric emergencies, their diagnosis, and their management can lead to unnecessary work in the emergency department. Also, advances in the treatment of these emergencies could limit hospital stays or readmission and, of course, children’s mortality.
The aim of this Special Issue, entitled “Diagnosis and Treatment of Pediatric Emergencies,” is to provide information about the diagnosis or advances in the management of various pediatric emergency cases in order to help pediatricians, pediatric surgeons, general practitioners, and emergency physicians to improve their knowledge and successfully these particular pathologies.
We invite researchers and authors to submit original research or review articles on this topic aimed at improving pediatric emergency care.
Dr. Katerina Kambouri
Guest Editor
