The New Pediatrics in Japan
View through CrossRef
AbstractPediatrics has arrived at a turning point. When diseases in children and the trend of demand for health care in Japan are observed, new fields are expanding which differ from traditional pediatrics, which set its sights on reduction of the death rate and control of infectious diseases; the new pediatrics aims at functional recovery and optimal growth and development, and involves what has to be done mainly in outpatient clinics. Pediatricians who work in these institutions must make their efforts in the ambulatory field and establish a form of ambulatory pediatrics which meets the needs of our “softening” society. Our efforts are necessary for the well‐being of our juniors. I present a framework for the new ambulatory pediatrics and enumerate its various tasks.
