Abstract

Caring for the pediatric trauma patient can be one of the most difficult and rewarding challenges an emergency nurse faces. Being aware of sources of trauma, understanding growth and development and the differences between the adult and pediatric patient, keeping the appropriate equipment for pediatric resuscitation, and being prepared emotionally ensure that the needs of the pediatric trauma patient can be better met in any emergency department.
