What Are the Challenges in Improving Survival Rates?
Despite the advancements, several challenges remain in improving pediatric survival rates:
- Disparities in Healthcare Access: Unequal access to healthcare services can result in varying survival rates among different populations. - Late Diagnoses: Delays in diagnosing conditions can negatively impact survival rates. - Resource Limitations: In low-resource settings, the lack of advanced medical equipment and trained personnel can hinder improvements in survival rates. - Resistance to Treatment: Conditions such as antimicrobial resistance can complicate treatment protocols and affect survival rates.
