Abstract

One-third of pediatric Emergency Medical Services (EMS) calls result in a child being left at the scene.

Our objective was to describe how EMS providers currently make pediatric non-transport decisions and identify enablers and barriers to successfully implementing a pediatric non-transport triage tool.
