Pediatric patients face a variety of risks that can affect their overall health and development. Some common risks include infectious diseases, nutritional deficiencies, and injuries. Infectious diseases like the flu, measles, and chickenpox can spread rapidly among children, especially in school settings. Nutritional deficiencies, such as iron deficiency anemia, can lead to developmental delays. Injuries from falls, burns, and accidents are also prevalent due to children's high activity levels and developing motor skills.
