Abstract

Paediatric Clinical Care Pathways (CCPs) are developed for specific health conditions or patient populations and are designed to standardise care across different healthcare settings, including hospitals, clinics, and outpatient settings. These care pathways outline the clinical guidelines for diagnosis, treatment, and follow-up of specific medical conditions. They provide a framework for the delivery of care based on the best available evidence and tailored to each patient's individual needs. This overview is aimed at identifying the available evidence for the effective use of CCPs in paediatric patients with Lower Respiratory Tract Infection (LRTI). It reviews the nature of CCPs of LRTI, their benefits, strategies to implement them, steps involved in development of CCPs and the disease condition in paediatric population for whom the CCPs are used so far. The article also gives an account of limitations of using CCPs.
