Supat B, et al. - Performing this retrospective multi-facility study of emergency department (ED) visits by children 1–17 years of age through the use of statewide data from the California Office of Statewide Health Planning and Development, researchers assessed pediatric ED utilization and described those who were frequent ED users. During the study period, they identified 690,130 patients aged 1-17 years with 1,238,262 visits. According to findings, most pediatric frequent users do not seek care in pediatric EDs. They found that pediatric patient frequent ED utilization had the largest associations with age, prior admission, and Medicare/Medicaid.
