Abstract
Length of stay, surgery, hospitalization, and recurrent referral rates were similar between the two groups. The transfer of orthopedic pediatric cases to the pediatric emergency department showed a notable improvement in pain management without an increase in complications or emergency department length of stay. • Pain management and control is a major issue to address in their treatment. • Traumatic injuries and especially fractures are common causes for ED admissions. • Comparing pain management and upper limb fractures treatment between general and pediatric ED. • Pain is better treated in the PED than in the GED, without an increased rate of complications.
