Abstract

Many advances have been made in pediatric critical care medicine over the last several years. This chapter will provide a broad overview of the most relevant advances in the following domains: patient monitoring, organ systems-based practice, rehabilitation, palliative care, quality improvement, education, and existing health inequities in pediatric critical care. Specific advances in the field of pediatric critical care discussed here represent those that have either demonstrated or have the potential to demonstrate improvement in patient outcomes, in addition to advances that are enablers to the provision of safe, efficacious, timely and equitable patient-centered care.
