31^st International Conference on Clinical Pediatrics May 22-23, 2023 Berlin, Germany

Neonatology can solve most health problems of new-borns; a Neonatologist is trained specifically to handle the most complex and high-risk situations. To take care of such young new-born infants, a subspecialty of Pediatrics has evolved known as neonatology that deals with the medical care of infants less than four weeks of age, especially those that are born premature, of low birth weight, with birth asphyxia, birth defects or are ill and need hospitalization. Special neonatal intensive care units called NICUs are available in most standard hospitals for such babies.

Pediatric Healthcare is committed to providing the highest quality comprehensive care to infants, children, and adolescents in a compassionate manner, and to assisting parents in the endeavour of rearing their children to reach their optimal physical, emotional and spiritual development.

Pediatric cardiologists are heart doctors who work with children. Their practice is different from that of heart doctors who treat adults. Pediatric cardiologists primarily treat problems with a child’s heart's structure or rhythm. A Pediatric cardiologist will work with your child's regular pediatrician or another primary care provider. Pediatric cardiologists don’t do surgery. If your child needs an operation, you’ll need to see a children's heart surgeon.

Diabetes and endocrinology is a broad-ranging specialty encompassing the diagnosis and treatment of patients with conditions caused by abnormalities of hormone production or action, and the endocrine glands that produce them. Endocrinology focuses on the body glands and how the hormones they produce help body systems work together and allow people to function. When things are not working well, children and adolescents may have problems with metabolism, growth and development, puberty and more. the most common endocrine disease is diabetes. There are many others. They are usually treated by controlling how much hormone your body makes. Hormone supplements can help if the problem is too little of a hormone.

Pediatric nursing is a specialization of the nursing profession that focuses on Pediatrics and the medical care of children, from infancy to the teenage years. This is an important field because the health of children is distinct from that of adults due to the growth and development that occurs throughout childhood. Pediatric nurses usually work in a multidisciplinary team with other health professionals to provide the best medical care possible for children. They play an important role to monitor the health of young patients and provide care and support throughout their treatment.

Clinical Pediatrics a peer-reviewed monthly journal, is a must read for the busy pediatrician. CLP contains state-of-the-art, accurate, concise and down-to earth information on practical, everyday child care topics whether they are clinical, scientific, behavioural, educational or ethical.  Pediatrics is to reduce infant and child rate of deaths, control the spread of infectious disease, promote healthy lifestyles for a long disease-free life and help ease the problems of children and adolescents with chronic conditions.

Pediatrics Allergies and Infections can affect anyone, regardless of age, gender, race or socioeconomic class. Generally, allergies are more common in children; however, a first-time occurrence can happen at any age, or recur after many years of remission. There is a tendency for allergies to occur in families, although the exact genetic factors that cause it are not yet understood.

Pediatric emergency medicine and Pediatric critical care provide care for all children in all states of distress. The primary distinction between the two is that Pediatric emergency medicine must be prepared to locate, stabilize, and transfer children in extremis to appropriate care. Therefore, Pediatric emergency medicine must extend beyond any single or group of institutions and into the regional community. Thus, Pediatric emergency medicine and Pediatric critical care have similar and distinct information needs and workflows, many of which are high-risk.

Skin changes are common in children. Common concerns are birthmarks (e.g., hemangiomas and port wine stains), atopic and contact dermatitis, acne, and alopecia areata. The authors review advances in common and not so common skin changes in Pediatric patients. Newest technology in lasers, in particular for the treatment of vascular birthmarks such as port-wine stains and hemangiomas. Sedation or topical anaesthetics are used to make these procedures more comfortable for children.

Diagnosis is the crucial first step in the journey of patient care. The entire treatment plan that a doctor may formulate depends on the outcome of this vital process. The concept of differential analysis came about primarily to act as a tool for ensuring error- free diagnosis.

Pediatric nephrology & urology focuses on the kidneys, ureters, bladder and urethra in children. If your child has kidney or urinary tract disease, bladder problems, kidney stones, or high blood pressure, a Pediatric nephrologist has the special skills and experience to treat your child. Pediatric nephrologists treat children from infancy through late adolescence and in some Centers up to young adulthood. Pediatric Urology is a surgical subspecialty of medicine dealing with the disorders of children’s genitourinary systems. Pediatric urologists provide care for both boys and girls ranging from birth to early adult age. The most common problems are those involving disorders of urination, reproductive organs and testes.

Breastfeeding for 6 months has many benefits for the infant and mother. Chief among these is protection against gastrointestinal infections which is observed not only in developing but also industrialized countries. Early initiation of breastfeeding, within 1 hour of birth, protects the new-born from acquiring infections and reduces new-born mortality. The risk of mortality due to diarrhoea and other infections can increase in infants who are either partially breastfed or not breastfed at all. Breast-milk is also an important source of energy and nutrients in children aged 6–23 months. It can provide half or more of a child’s energy needs between the ages of 6 and 12 months, and one third of energy needs between 12 and 24 months. Breast milk is also a critical source of energy and nutrients during illness, and reduces mortality among children who are malnourished.

Childhood cancers are unique type of cancers, the etiology of which is uncertain however majority of these cancers are curable. Common cancers seen in childhood include Acute Leukemia (Blood cancers), solid tumor like neuroblastoma, Wilms’ Tumor and Brain tumors. The cure rates of these cancers have improved from less than 10% survival in 1960’s to > 90% survival in the present age. Outcome of childhood cancers is one of the most impressive amongst all cancers across age groups put together provided these cancers are diagnosed early and treated appropriately. 

Paediatric radiology is a subspecialty of radiology involving the imaging of fetuses, infants, children adolescents and young adults. Many paediatric radiologists practice at children's hospitals. Although some diseases seen in paediatrics are the same as that in adults, there are many conditions which are seen only in infants. The specialty has to take in account the dynamics of a growing body, from pre-term infants to large adolescents, where the organs follow growth patterns and phases. These require specialised imaging and treatment which is carried out in a Children's hospital, which has all the facilities necessary to treat children and their specific pathologies.

A Pediatric surgeon specializes in the treatment of birth defects and childhood medical conditions through surgical procedures and on-going care. Surgical errors occurring during these procedures may have a profound impact on the child’s physical and mental development and could severely alter his or her quality of living.
