In an effort to address the growing challenges facing pediatric healthcare, the Department of Pediatrics at Liaquat University of Medical & Health Sciences (LUMHS) Jamashoro organized a symposium on Saturday under the theme “Obstacles to Integrated Pediatric Approach.” Experts and pediatricians from across the country gathered to discuss crucial issues impacting child health, including the rising prevalence of chronic and complex pediatric health conditions and the need for a transformative shift in healthcare delivery models.
Chief Guest and Vice Chancellor of LUMHS Prof. Dr. Ikram Din Ujjan emphasized the importance of integrative pediatrics, which he defined as an evidence-based approach that develops and promotes complementary health practices within the field of pediatrics. He said that integrative pediatrics aims to offer the best available care for children, considering complementary practices and conventional health in integration and partnership with professional teams and all pediatric specialties.
