Pediatric Intensive Care provides organ-specific support to critically ill children with a very broad range of diagnoses. Its development over the last two decades has transformed outcomes for these children in high-, middle- and low-income settings. Scientific advances have led to improved outcomes over time, with pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) mortality approaching 3% in highly-resourced pediatric intensive care settings. However, this success has come with consequences.
