abstract="Injuries are the most common cause of death among children globally.(1,2) Although preventive measures have reduced mortality rates in recent decades, injuries are still a major health problem in childhood.(1,2) Critically ill and injured children are frequently admitted to mixed adult and paediatric emergency departments (EDs) and trauma centres. However, they only account for about 20% of patients and this means that they can receive poor quality paediatric emergency care.(2) The National Pediatric Readiness Project (NPRP) was introduced to encourage American EDs to assess their compliance with American guidelines on paediatric emergency care. These guidelines are outlined in the 2009 Joint Policy Statement: Guidelines for Care of Children in the Emergency Department issued by the American Academy of Pediatrics, American College of Physicians and Emergency Nurses Association.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
