Authorization is crucial in Pediatrics for several reasons:
1. Legal Compliance: Healthcare providers must comply with laws and regulations that protect minors. Unauthorized medical treatment can result in legal consequences. 2. Ethical Considerations: Respecting the autonomy and rights of parents or guardians is fundamental in medical ethics. 3. Patient Safety: Ensuring that the parent or guardian is fully informed about the risks and benefits of treatments helps in making the best decisions for the child's health.
