Introduction

01. Operation of Korea's First Pediatric Emergency Room

Seoul National University Hospital has been operating a pediatric emergency room for independent treatment of children since 1985 for the first time in Korea.

In 2004, when the Seoul area emergency medical center was opened at Seoul National University Hospital, the pediatric emergency room was integrated and operated within the Seoul area emergency medical center. 

 

Since the Pediatric Emergency Center was designated as a specialized emergency room for pediatrics and opened in 2013, the pediatric emergency room has moved to the existing children's hospital and has become independent.

02. Dedicated Space for Pediatric Patients.

Seoul National University Hospital Pediatric Emergency Center is a dedicated space for emergency patients for children and adolescents, where it is possible to provide separate treatment from adult patients. We are equipped with a dedicated hospital bed, diagnosis room, treatment room, resuscitation room, isolation room, and waiting room for children and adolescents.

Because of this, the initial emergency treatment, surgery, hospitalization, and ultimate therapy by the relevant specialist are available, and it is possible to rapidly diagnose and stabilize the condition of children and adolescent patients who visit the pediatric emergency center.
