What Are the Common Diagnostic Pitfalls?

Several common pitfalls can affect the accuracy of pediatric diagnoses:
1. Assuming Normalcy: Always consider that what may appear normal in an adult could be pathological in a child, and vice versa.
2. Over-Reliance on Tests: Diagnostic tests are adjuncts, not substitutes, for clinical judgment. Over-reliance on tests can lead to misdiagnosis.
3. Communication Gaps: Miscommunication between healthcare providers and families can result in incomplete histories or misunderstanding of symptoms.
