Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: Background: Our primary objective was to analyze and describe the population characteristics — including race and ethnicity, age, insurance status, and comorbidities—among all pediatric ED visits included in the National Hospital Ambulatory Medical Survey (NHAMCS). Due to prevalent healthcare disparities, our secondary objective was to evaluate the demographic factors in triage level, ED wait times, and intentional vs unintentional traumas and poisoning.
