Popis: | General pediatricians have been involved for decades in bringing health to the world’s children with preventive and public health interventions. Building on this, this article seeks to explore the necessary concepts and components that would facilitate a rapid response for critically ill or injured pediatric patients to become a life-saving reality for all children. It has been shown that emergency care can be done practically, cost-effectively, and is necessary to save the lives of children who will, just like children in the USA, suffer from critical illness and injury as a matter of living. There is a challenge to the pediatric emergency medicine community to facilitate the training and delivery of rapid pediatric response worldwide, with the recognition that emergency care is a specialty of rapid team formation to identify critically ill children, and rapid action to resuscitate them. |
