Funding and Resources Pediatric research often receives less funding compared to adult medical research. This can limit the development and implementation of new technologies and treatments.
Ethical Considerations Innovations in pediatrics must navigate ethical concerns, particularly when it comes to testing new treatments and technologies on children. Ensuring safety and efficacy while protecting the rights of young patients is paramount.
Regulatory Hurdles New pediatric innovations must pass stringent regulatory requirements before they can be used in clinical settings. This can slow down the adoption of new technologies and treatments.
