PECARN is making huge strides pediatric emergency care research
It is difficult to conduct research in pediatric emergency care because there are so few cases. PECARN's multi-institutional approach now makes more of this research possible.
PECARN is the Pediatric Emergency Care Applied Research Network, the first federally-funded multi-institutional network for research in pediatric emergency medicine.
The goal of this network is to conduct meaningful and rigorous multi-institutional research into the prevention and management of acute illnesses and injuries in children and youth across the continuum of emergency medicine health care.
The PECARN network consists of a coordinating data center, several Research Node Centers (RNCs), and several Hospital Emergency Department Affiliates (HEDAs) and EMS Agencies that represent academic, community, urban, rural, general, and children's hospitals.
